  No, No, No! Ezekiel addresses his oracles to his fellow exiles in Babylon not to the Jews in Judah for they already had a prophet in Jeremiah. The prophecies of Ezekiel are certainly about Judah and confirmed as in the case of Ezeliel 33:23-29 that the land would certainly be devastated and it certainly became a fact by the month of October,607 BCE. Events moved very quickly from the time of the Fall of Jerusalem to the complete deportation of those remaining Jews who fled to Egypt before the beginning of the seventy years would begin to start in the seventh month.

  Jehovah was true to his prophecies as proclaimed by Jeremiah and Daniel and later confirmed by Ezekiel and the fulfillment of those prophecies right on time even to the very month also proves that Jehovah is the great Timekeeper.

  You're just repeating yourself. You have nothing to say about the particulars of Ezekiel 33 that I pointed out. All you do is state gross generalities ("Ezekiel addresses his oracles to his fellow exiles in Babylon not to the Jews in Judah for they already had a prophet in Jeremiah") as if they override what is plainly stated in that pasage itself.

  So what if I repeat myself because the matter is quite obvious and that is the simple fact that Ezekiel simply confirms to his present audience in Babylon that after the report of the messenger that Jerusalem had fallen, Jehovah's declaration of the desolation of Judah through Jeremiah had already begun. The matter is obvious to all and your hypothesis is simply nonsense as all of the evidence confirms.
