Ezekiel 13:14
14 "So I will tear down the wall which you plastered over with whitewash and bring it down to the ground , so that its foundation is laid bare ; and when it falls , you will be consumed in its midst . And you will know that I am the Lord .

Commentary on Ezekiel 13:10-16
(Read Ezekiel 13:10-16)
One false prophet built the wall, set up the notion that Jerusalem should be victorious, and made himself acceptable by it. Others made the matter yet more plausible and promising; they daubed the wall which the first had built; but they would, ere long, be undeceived when their work was beaten down by the storm of God's just wrath; when the Chaldean army desolated the land. Hopes of peace and happiness, not warranted by the word of God, will cheat men; like a wall well daubed, but ill built.
