Ezekiel 40:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 40:1

A New City, a New Temple

1 In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after ^athe city was captured, on the very same day ^bthe hand of the Lord was upon me; and He took me there.

2 ^aIn the visions of God He took me into the land of Israel and ^bset me on a very high mountain; on it toward the south was something like the structure of a city.

3 He took me there, and behold, there was a man whose appearance was ^alike the appearance of bronze. ^bHe had a line of flax ^cand a measuring rod in his hand, and he stood in the gateway.

4 And the man said to me, ^a“Son of man, look with your eyes and hear with your ears, and¹ fix your mind on everything I show you; for you were brought here so that I might show them to you. ^bDeclare to the house of Israel everything you see.”
