A young Ezekiel, carried off to exile in Babylon, is commissioned by the Lord to warn of a more devastating and unthinkable judgment to come.

Chris Wright vividly explores Ezekiel’s varied and dramatic mission at several levels:
– his unwavering commitment to his task
– the social and political background to his work
– the character of his ministry as watchman, evangelist and pastor
– and the wider context of Ezekiel’s vision – the knowledge of the Lord in Israel and amongst the nations

Ezekiel strived to bring meaning, comfort and hope to a shattered, decimated and demoralised remnant of God’s people, Israel – a challenge Christians must all emulate in our increasingly troubled world today.
