Ezikiel was one of the jews exiled from jews after it was sacked by babylon.

Years after, he and the other exlies wondered why has God blessed Babylon? And he developed this writing and his ideas while he lived in exile with other exiled jews from isreal.

He accuses isreal of breaking their covenant with god, so he spends years trying to convince the other exiles to right themselves with the jewish traditions (God).

he goes on and on about all the evil music they listen to, the sexy dancing they were doing, (all the usual bad stuff, that leads to an empires destruction *cough cough AMERICA cough cough)

15-23, these are all pariables (which is why isaid not to quote them out of context) and arguments by ezikiel about why the pariables are what the jews were doing.

the rest is judgment, and resolution, and the resolution is hope for everyone, and gods final victory over bad behavior, and we get to the BEST PART

gog magog.

which is really about defeating those that dont worship God and their empires. Or, more specifically: non-Israelites. The un-chosen.

And then after that its about how the victors after those battles play out, the jews will be taken up into a whole new glorious world from isreal in the temple. Hence, how, and why the jews are the chosen ones. They will reign all, from isreal.
