REL 220: OLD TESTAMENT SURVEY FINAL EXAM Theology of Ezekiel: One of the aspects of the Theology of Ezekiel is Idolatry. The prophet Ezekiel is unreserved in his language when it comes to describing idols. He uses the Hebrew word “ gillulim” (dung/manure) in a disdainful way to describe the uselessness of idols.
