Ezekiel 6 Summary

Prophecy Against the Mountains of Israel

God commands Ezekiel to prophesy against the mountains of Israel and all their high places and idols. The mountains and valleys shall be laid waste, the altars desolate, the images broken, and the slain scattered round about the altars. Yet God will leave a remnant who shall escape the sword and remember the LORD in captivity, loathing themselves for their abominations. The land shall become desolate, and men shall know that the LORD hath spoken.
