Footnotes:

11:1-2 - Ezekiel sees a vision of judgment on the leaders of Jerusalem, who practice iniquity. This judgment reflects the responsibility of leaders to guide the people, and how the sin of leadership affects the entire nation (see also James 3:1 and 1 Timothy 3:1-7).

11:3-4 - Jerusalem's leaders are accused of mistreating the poor and perpetuating violence, reflecting corruption and social injustice. This highlights the contrast between true leadership according to God's standards and human oppression (see also Amos 5:11-12 and Micah 6:6-8).

11:5-7 - Divine judgment is pronounced upon those who have hardened hearts and oppose God. This judgment symbolizes God's response to hardness of heart and disobedience, warning them of the need for repentance and humility before God (see also Jeremiah 17:9-10 and Romans 2:5-8).

11:9-12 - The promise of restoration is made to the exiles, with God promising to bring a new heart and a new spirit. This symbolizes the hope of renewal and redemption, even after judgment, revealing divine mercy (see also Jeremiah 31:33-34 and Ezekiel 36:26-27).

11:13-21 - The vision concludes with the promise that God will restore His people, even after exile and judgment. This represents God's faithfulness to His covenant and the certainty of His restoration, pointing to the fulfillment of the messianic promise (see also Isaiah 11:10 and Matthew 24:31).

Psalms 51:10: "Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a stable spirit within me." - This psalm expresses a desire similar to God's promise in Ezekiel 11:19 to give a new heart and spirit to his people.

Acts 7:51: "Rebellious people, obstinate in heart and ears! You are just like your ancestors: you always resist the Holy Spirit!" - Stephen uses language similar to that in Ezekiel 11:21 to describe those who reject God.

Revelation 21:3: "And I heard a loud voice coming from the throne saying, 'Now the tabernacle of God is with men, with whom he will live. They will be your people; God himself will be with them and will be their God.'" - This vision of Revelation reflects the promise of Ezekiel 11:20 of a restored relationship between God and his people.
