In Hebrew, the name “Ezekiel” means “God strengthens,” or “God is strong.”

Since the primary purpose of man is to glorify God and praise Him forever, the primary purpose of worship is to glorify God and give Him pleasure corporately. To do anything else, regardless of intentions, is to shift the focus from our devotion to God to the enjoyment of man.

God was ready to bless Judah. However, their selfish indulgence had brought them to the end of God’s mercy, and God allowed the armies of Babylon to besiege the cities and to take the people as captives to Babylon.

God used Ezekiel to remind his people that the temple had been set apart for the people to express their worship of Him. Therefore, whatever they did inside or outside the temple needed to reflect His holiness. Theologically, the 8 th chapter of Ezekiel affirms the inerrancy of God’s Word, His absolute sovereignty, omniscience, and holiness, the seriousness of idolatry, and the biblical principle that God’s judgment is the necessary consequence of sin.
