Jerusalem is like a pot

Ezekiel 11:1-13
The Lord rebuked that the prophets, the leader of the city killed God's people.
The city is a pot full of dead body.
Prophesy again them.
You will know that I am the Lord, for you have not followed my decrees or kept my laws but have conformed to the standards of the nations around you.
25 men was at east gate entrance of the house. They are the men who are plotting evil and giving wicked advice in this city.

Pelatiah son of Benaiah was among them, then he died when Ezekiel was prophesying.
Why?
Very evil men usually the Lord will end his life by his hand soon.
These leaders and prophets of Jerusalem killed many people in the city, so the city like a pot full with meat, but the Lord will kill them at the border of Israel. They might think they have escaped from the city, but the judge of the Lord will not hiding. Then they will know He is the Lord.
How?

Leaders of the church or people take more responsibility than others, they have more blessing from the Lord and respect from the people, but if they do not do the right thing. The judgment comes upon them first.
