Ezekiel 6:5 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 6:5

And I will lay the dead carcasses of the children of Israel

Ezekiel 6:5 In-Context

3 'O Mountains of Israel, listen to the Message of God, the Master. God, the Master, speaks to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and the valleys: I'm about to destroy your sacred god and goddess shrines.
4 I'll level your altars, bust up your sun-god pillars, and kill your people as they bow down to your no-god idols.
5 I'll stack the dead bodies of Israelites in front of your idols and then scatter your bones around your shrines.
6 Every place where you've lived, the towns will be torn down and the pagan shrines demolished - altars busted up, idols smashed, all your custom-made sun-god pillars in ruins.
7 Corpses everywhere you look! Then you'll know that I am God.
