Ezekiel 20:45-23:49 – Silver Or Dross?

Judah is being exposed once more to their great sins and the reason why God would bring the Babylonians against them as judgment. One picture God gives is that of a furnace that would melt all the metal ore where the dross would come to the top. And the Lord would have to scrape away all those impurities. Judah was to be like precious silver, but instead they had become like the impure dross.
