God expressed his indignation and denunciation of the Israelites ’ debased form of worship through his prophet Ezekiel, saying: “In all your dwelling places the very cities will become devastated and the high places themselves will become desolated, in order that they may lie devastated and your altars may lie desolated and be actually broken and your dungy idols may be actually made to cease and your incense stands cut down and your works wiped out. ”
Jumal väljendas oma meelepaha ja hukkamõistu iisraellaste jäleda teenimisviisi vastu prohvet Hesekieli kaudu, lausudes: „Kõigis teie asupaigus muutuvad linnad varemeiks ja ohvrikünkad laastatuks; nõnda jäävad teie altarid varemeiks ja rüüstatuks, teie ebajumalad purustatuks ja hävitatuks, teie suitsutusaltarid lammutatuks ja teie tööd ärapühituks! ”.
