EZEKIEL Chapter 22 Israel’s Shedding of Blood

God is telling Ezekiel to remind the residents of Jerusalem of all their abominations
• The indictments are concerning the murder of the citizens by leaders and ordinary citizens
• God’s view of Jerusalem – • City that spills blood
• City that makes idols
• Their sins brought the judgement that was coming
• Israel would be a disgraced before the nations
• God Promised:
• 1. Scatter the people of Jerusalem among the nations • 2. Refine their sinful nature out of them
• 3. They would not be able to maintain holiness in exile
