Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work
within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.
Repent now and accept Jesus Christ into your heart

flat cakes, and they were placed upon, or hung
over, the hot wood embers of the hearth or
oven. But in a besieged city the supply of
wood for fuel soon fails.
The first resource is found, as still often
happens in the East, in using the dried dung
of camels or of cattle. Before Ezekiel's mind
there came the vision of a yet more terrible
necessity.
"That supply also might tail, and then men
would be forced to use the dried contents of
the "draught houses" or cesspools of
Jerusalem.
They would be compelled almost literally
to fulfil the taunt of Isaiah 36:12. That
thought, as bringing with it the ceremonial
pollution of Leviticus 5:3: 7:21, was
revolting to Ezekiel as it is to us; but he
does not shrink from naming it.
It came to him, as with the authority of a
Divine command, that he was even to do
this, to represent the extreme horrors of
the siege. And all this was to be done
visibly, before the eyes of his neighbours."

Deuteronomic History, assembled during Josiah's reign, were amended
about 25 years later to include reasons for their defeat. So we know
what the establishment claimed it was because that's what the Bible
says.
But the common folks in the countryside disagreed. They blamed the
defeat on Josiah's removal of Asherah from the temple. And so, after
they fled to Egypt and erected the Elephantine temple, they included
prominent trappings for Asherah next to her husband Yahweh.
