Ezekiel 12


God tells Ezekiel to pack his bags as if he is going to exile as a symbol for the others.  God even directs him to dig a hole under the wall as if he were trying to escape.  This I do not fully understand because I thought Ezekiel was already living among the Ezekiels.

The second half of the chapter makes a bit more sense.  The people reject Ezekiel's prophesies and say that the destructions predicted will happen in the far future.  We also find out that the people are receiving false and complementary visions of what they want to hear, but it is not from God.
