Listen to Ezequiel 1:3

Ezequiel 1:3 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 1:3

The word of the Lord came expressly
Or, "in being was" {d}; which phrase denotes the reality, certainty, substantiality and evidence of the word of the Lord to him:

unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi;
which Buzi, some say, was Jeremiah. Kimchi observes, that, in the Jerusalem Targum, the Prophet Ezekiel is called the son of Jeremiah the prophet: and Jeremiah was called Buzi because they despised him; this is rejected by Abarbinel; nor is there any reason to believe it, any more than what Nazianzen F5 says, that Ezekiel was a servant of Jeremiah:

in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar;
(See Gill on Ezekiel 1:1). The Chaldee paraphrase makes the word of the Lord to come to him at two distinct times and places;

``the word of prophecy from before the Lord was with Ezekiel the son of Buzi the priest in the land of Israel: it returned a second time, and spoke with him in the province, the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar:''

and the hand of the Lord was there upon him;
by which is meant the gift and word of prophecy, which came with power and efficacy, clearness and evidence; so the Targum, and the

``spirit of prophecy from before the Lord there abode by him;''

by which he saw all later visions, and delivered out the following prophecies; see ( 2 Peter 1:21 ) .

1 Y fue que a los treinta años, en el mes cuarto, a los cinco del mes, estando yo en medio de los cautivos junto al río de Quebar, los cielos se abrieron, y vi visiones de Dios
2 A los cinco del mes, que fue en el quinto año de la transmigración del rey Joaquín
3 vino Palabra del SEÑOR a Ezequiel sacerdote, hijo de Buzi, en la tierra de los caldeos, junto al río de Quebar; y vino allí sobre él la mano del SEÑOR
4 Y miré, y he aquí un viento tempestuoso venía del aquilón, y una gran nube, y un fuego que venía revolviéndose, y tenía en derredor suyo un resplandor, y en medio de él, en medio del fuego una cosa que parecía como de ámbar
5 y en medio de ella, la figura de cuatro animales. Y éste era su parecer: había en ellos semejanza de hombre
