Commentators unanimously explain that Ezekiel's actions were a detailed, prophetic drama. He packed his belongings by day and prepared to leave at night, precisely foreshadowing how King Zedekiah would later flee Jerusalem into exile, as recorded in Jeremiah 39:4 and 2 Kings 25:4. This served as a living, visual warning to the people of the coming judgment.
