		Ezekiel's book is one of the most original in the sacred literature of Israel.
		If it were true, however, that the whole book was written at that time all previous dates would be merely literary embellishments, and this view is difficult because of the importance of the dating in several instances where the prophet claims to transcend ordinary human knowledge.
