Ezekiel 8:1 · Masoretic Text (WLC)
AMPLIFIED · 1 of 3
It came about in the sixth year [of the captivity of King Jehoiachin], on the fifth day of the sixth month, as I sat in my house [near Babylon] with the elders of Judah sitting before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell on me there.
This begins the second vision of ch.8-11, a virtual tour of the Jerusalem temple showing exactly what is happening there in Ezekiel's absence - and it is not good.
