Roll
'A volume' or 'roll,' as in Zechariah 5:2, signifies the curse going forth upon the faces of the whole earth. 'A roll of a book written within and without,' as in Ezekiel 2:9-10 and 3:1-3, signifies the state of the church and thus the quality of life of the people at that time.

Jeremiah 3:1-2
1
"They say, 'If a man puts away his wife, and she goes from him, and become another man's, will he return to her again?' Wouldn't that land be greatly polluted? But you have played the prostitute with many lovers; yet return again to me," says Yahweh.
2
"Lift up your eyes to the bare heights, and see! Where have you not been lain with? You have sat for them by the ways, as an Arabian in the wilderness. You have polluted the land with your prostitution and with your wickedness.
