Overview

The prophet Ezekiel speaks passionately of God's fidelity even in the face of his people's infidelity, defending the destruction of Jerusalem as God's judgment while promising a new experience of the divine presence that will bring with it "a new heart" for God's people. Bruce Vawter and Leslie J. Hoppe illuminate the profound theological themes of Ezekiel, making him accessible to people today by stressing his proclamations of judgment and salvation as vital words for the people of God in every age.
