até que lhes falte o pão e a água, e se espantem uns com os outros, e se definhem na sua iniqüidade.

The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms #128
128. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 5
It is represented how they have destroyed the sense of the letter. (2)
1-2 In part they have adulterated the sense of the letter, in part have falsified it, and in part forsaken it; nevertheless, they will continue to falsify it. (2)
3 They will profane all the truths of the church. (2)
5-7 Because they have perverted the truths of the church more than others, (3)
8-10 falsities have destroyed goods, and evils truths until nothing of good and truth is left; (3)
11-12 and because they have destroyed the church by profaning it, they will perish, as above. (3)
13 Afterward the church will be instituted among others, (11)
14-17 since all things of the Word, of doctrine and of the church have previously been consummated by profanities, and by evils and falsities. (3)
Ezekiel 5:1-2
1
You, son of man, take a sharp sword; You shall take it as a barber's razor to you, and shall cause it to pass on your head and on your beard: then take balances to weigh, and divide the hair.
2
A third part you shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled; and you shall take a third part, and strike with the sword around it; and a third part you shall scatter to the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.
