[1] {visions}
Visions, that is, of former profanations of the temple, and of the
wickedness because of which Israel was then in Babylon, show the prophet
that he might justify to the new generation born in Assyria and Babylonia
during the captivity, the righteousness of God in the present national
chastening. The visions are retrospective; Israel had done these
things, hence the captivities. This strain continues to Ez. 33.20. It
is the divine view of the national sinfulness and apostasy, revealed to
Ezekiel in a series of visions so vivid that though the prophet was by
the river Chebar.
# Eze 1:1,3 3:23 10:15,20,22 43:3
It was as if he were transported back to Jerusalem, and to the time
when these things were occurring. These visions of the sinfulness
of Israel are interspersed with promises of restoration and blessing
which are yet to be fulfilled.
See "Israel"

and nature-worship
