Ezekiel 3:1 And *he said to me: Son of man, eat all that thou shalt find: eat this book, and go speak to the children of Israel.

Year of the World 3409. Eat this book, and go speak to the children of Israel. By this eating of the book, was signified the diligent attention and affection with which we are to receive and embrace the word of God; and to let it as it were, sink into our interior by devout meditation. (Challoner) --- The revelation came from God, ver. 10. (Worthington)
