Answer: burning, cutting with a knife, throwing it into to the wind
Ezekiel was instructed to shave his hair and beard (Ezekiel 5:1-4). God told him to burn a third with fire, cut a third with a knife, and throw the last part to the wind, as signs of the different destruction that would come to Israel.
The first section of hair was burned to show the significance of Jerusalem being burned by enemies. The second section was cut with a knife to show how many of the Israelites would be slain by the sword. The rest of the hair was scattered, because Israel would be taken into captivity and scattered among many nations. (Ezekiel 5:1-4, KJV)

Answer: His wife
When the people came to Ezekiel and asked why he did not grieve over someone he loved so dear, Ezekiel told them God had spoken to him and told him that he was not allowed to. It was a sign to the Israelites that they would have no time to grieve when God destroyed the city and their own relatives when they would be slain by the sword. Instead of burying their loved ones, they would be taken into captivity. (Ezekiel 24:15-24, KJV)

Answer: the shepherds of Israel
Ezekiel is told to prophesy against the shepherds of Israel because they did not properly care for the sheep (verse 10). The remainder of this chapter describes the True Shepherd who cares for the sheep. In verse 31, we find that the sheep are representative of men. Christians believe that the "Good" or "True" Shepherd is Jesus Christ.
