Ezekiel 40:1-4 - A Vision Of The New Temple

¹ In the twenty-fifth year of our exe at the beginning of the year. on the tenth of the month in the fourteenth year, after the city was smitten, on this selfsame day, came upon me the hand of Yahweh, and he brought me thither: ² In the visions of God, he brought me into the land of Israel, - and set me down upon an exceeding high mountain, and thereupon, was, as it were the structure of a city, on the south. ³ And when he brought me thither, then lo! a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a flax-cord in his hand and measuring reed, - and he was standing in the gate. ⁴ And the man spake unto me, saying. Son of man See with thine eyes And with thine ears, hear thou And apply thy heart to whatsoever I am about to show thee, For to the intent it might be shown thee, hast thou been brought hither,- Declare all that thou seest unto the house of Israel.
