On the third day, while I was sitting under an oak tree,
2
suddenly a voice came out of a bush near me and called, "Ezra! Ezra!"
1 I stood up and answered, "Here I am, Lord."
3
The voice continued, "I revealed myself from a bush and spoke to Moses when my people were slaves in Egypt.
4
I sent him to lead them out of Egypt, and I brought them to Mount Sinai. I kept Moses with me there on the mountain for a long time,
5
while I told him the secrets about the ages and the end of time. I told him
6
what to make public and what to keep secret.
8
to memorize the signs, visions, and interpretations that I have given you.
9
You will be taken out of this world into the heavenly world where you and others like you will live with my son until the end of time.
