Notes

Ezekiel 14:8

Rather than using a false prophet to give divine guidance, the Lord would respond directly with a severe act of judgment. This would remove them from among his people. Whether this means death or excommunication, these insincere leaders would be taken out of the covenant community, the only place where true life exists.
