Ezekiel gives an extremely graphic description of just how far Israel’s sin had brought them from God. Yet in spite of all of their evil, He uses it to emphasize His intent to see them restored even when describing them at their worst.

1. God is good to us because that’s simply who He is.

2. God often punishes sin by letting us see just how far it will take us from Him.

3. God is more patient than we could ever imagine.
