Imagine you are the Israelite who was captured and now live in Babylon. You go through all the hardship and then you saw others Isarelites keep coming to Babylon. You may ask, how long? GOd, how long do we suffer? Ezekiel gives them the answer, the suffering is not enough yet. More is coming (Ch4-5). May be we are too caught up with our own suffering and forget about the God. God has a very strong reaction to our sin. In ch 5 and 7, He has repeatedly said that He is angry, e.g. 5:11, 13, 15. Do we care when we sin that we will make God very angry?
