The Spirit Took Me Up

Thomas Bradbury

Summary

In Ezekiel 43:5, the prophet describes the glory of the Lord filling the temple, signifying God's presence among His people. This vision symbolizes the restoration of divine favor and the return of God's glory to dwell with His chosen ones. It serves as a promise of renewal, reconciliation, and spiritual revival for Israel after a period of exile and judgment. The imagery of the temple being filled with God's glory reflects the intimate relationship between God and His people, emphasizing His faithfulness and desire to dwell among them. Ultimately, Ezekiel 43:5 points to the future fulfillment of God's redemptive plan through the presence of Jesus Christ, who brings God's glory to dwell in the hearts of believers.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

The spirit took me up - And, to follow this thought for a moment, how many men has this heavenly Spirit taken up; filled them with his own influence, and sent them to every country, and nation, and tongue, and people, to testify the Gospel of the grace of God, and to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ! What spiritual temples have been raised, beautified, and filled with the glory of God! And this light is shining and burning more and more unto the perfect day, when the whole earth shall be filled with the glory of God!
