This chapter is at once historic and prophetic. As Ezekiel prophesies to the house of Israel, God reveals to him the utter corruption and sin of the elders of the land, all done behind closed doors. The message is prophetic to us as we see corruption in the lands we live, but also a warning to God's Church that we are doing things His way, with no hidden agendas. Christ said in Luke 8:17, "There is nothing hidden that won't be revealed."
