‏ Ezekiel 8:11

8:11  a These seventy leaders are a shocking contrast to the seventy leaders of Moses’ day who were given the unique privilege of seeing God (Exod 24:1-11  b) and were given the same Spirit as Moses (Num 11:16-30  c). Jaazaniah, the leader of this group, was, ironically, the son of Shaphan, a godly leader who was prominently involved in Josiah’s reforms (2 Kgs 22:3-14  d).

• The incense, intended to ward off dangers from demonic spirits, helped instead to bring God’s judgment upon the land.
