By the Rivers of Babylon

"By the Rivers of Babylon" explores the early life of the prophet Ezekiel, tracing his journey from childhood through his service in the Temple and his experience among the Babylonian exiles. The narrative delves into Ezekiel's humble beginnings as a bricklayer and his initial lack of prophetic visions, set against the backdrop of a community striving to maintain faith and identity in a challenging exile. Through a personal and insightful lens, Michael O'Brien provides an intimate look into what shapes a prophet and the motivations behind Ezekiel’s emerging calling.
