(40:1–48:35)

40:1 Yehezkel is taken to Yerushalem

40 In mid-April of the twenty-fifth year of our captivity (the fourteenth year after Yerushalem (Jerusalem) was captured), Yahweh used his power to take me there, 2 yes, God took me to Yisrael (Israel) in visions. He put me on a very high mountain where there seemed to be city buildings towards the south,[ref] 3 and he took me there. Then wow, there was a man standing in the city gateway who looked like bronze! He was holding a linen cord and a measuring rod.[ref]

4 The man told me, “Son of humanity, look with your eyes and listen with your ears, and fix your mind on everything that I’m revealing to you, because you were brought here so I could reveal them to you. Report everything you see here to the Israeli people.”

40:2: Rev 21:10.

40:3: Rev 11:1; 21:15.
