Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 3:1-27

Ezekiel 3:3 . The roll was in my mouth as honey. To taste the good word of God is pleasant; but it was bitter in the belly with regard to imprisonment and martyrdom. Revelation 10:9.

The Biblical Illustrator - Ezekiel 3:12-13

Ezekiel 3:12-13Then the Spirit took me up.The light of God reconciles the disorders of lifeIn the light of God the presence of moral disorder can be reconciled with His superintending goodness and mercy.
