Today, Monday April 10, the Catholic Church honors Saint Ezekiel.
He was the son of a priest and he was also a priest (remember that in the Old Testament in Israel the priests married).
He was the prophet commissioned by God to encourage the people when the Israelites were taken captive to Babylon. For 22 years he preached to the people of Israel in the desert.
According to the Holy Scriptures, there are up to seven visions of the prophet related to the judgment of Israel and the restoration of the people after captivity.
The Catholic saints are the group of people recognized by the Church as saints or blessed on a specific date. The Roman Martyrology is the document that names and distributes in the calendar the almost 7,000 saints and blessed recognized by the Church.

Today’s saints day, April 10, also celebrates the following saint’s days:
