Ezekiel 3:23

Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of Jehovah stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face." — Ezekiel 3:23 (ASV)

Went forth into the plain. —As he was now again to see the same vision as at the first, it was fitting that he should leave the thickly-peopled Tel-abib and seek a place of solitude, and in that solitude God promises him, I will there talk with thee. The vision reappeared; again the prophet fell on his face, and again the Spirit set him upon his feet, and talked with him.
