Stop with the sarcasm.
Ezekiel 38-39 is referring to Israel in the latter days, latter years (Ezekiel 38:8 and Ezekiel 38:16). The modern day nation of Israel is made up of mostly, unbelieving in Jesus, Jews.
These verses in Ezekiel 39:23-24 refer to the Jews, who went into captivity in 70 AD.
23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.
24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
in Ezekiel 39:23-24 above, Jesus states when the house of Israel went into captivity, it was because they trespassed against Him - i.e. rejecting Him as their King of Israel, and messiah. Jesus, therefore, hide His face from them, i.e causing what is called blindness of the Jews in Romans 11:25.
Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Everything is in place, keras.
