August 16th

In today's reading I was fascinated by God's taking Ezekiel by means of a vision to the Temple in Jerusalem to watch the detestable things that the people and elders were doing there.  I was also impressed with the story of how God removed His presence from the place.   The stories of retribution of terrifying.  It's an awful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God.  Indeed, how could he have left it there any longer?   I still wonder what happened to the Ark.
