Chapter 32:1-16 covers the period March, 584 b.c., one year and eight months after [[Jerusalem]] fell. In these verses there is also recorded a lamentation over [[Egypt]], which was to be crushed at the hands of [[Babylon]].

[[Ezekiel]] had been silent since the day the siege had begun. This covered a period of about three years. The visions of chapters 26-31, most of which came within that three-year period, and were directed against Tyre and [[Egypt]], must have been written, not spoken. [[Ezekiel]] 's first utterance, after receiving the news of the fall of [[Jerusalem]], was that the wicked left in [[Judah]] would be exterminated. Five years later [[Nebuchadnezzar]] took 745 more captives.

Chapter 33:30-33 records [[Ezekiel]] 's popularity with the exiles. He charmed them with his speech, but they continued unrepentant.

Chapter 34 records the indictment of the shepherds, or leaders, of [[Israel]]. The responsibility of the captivity of [[Israel]] is blamed directly on the greedy and cruel kings and priests who had led the people astray. Against this background [[Ezekiel]] sees a [[vision]] of the Future Shepherd of [[God]]'s people in the coming [[Messiah]] , under whom they shall nevermore suffer and "there shall be showers of blessings.".
