THE ARGVMENT OF EZECHIELS PROPHECIE.
note
Ezechiel a Priest, and a Prophet, and at last a Martyr; as
likewise Ieremie was, nere of the same age, prophecied for the most part
the same thinges; but Ieremie beganne to prophecie a childe, in Ierusalem,
and finally in Ægypt: Ezechiel when he was about thirtie yeares old, in
Babylon, where he was in captiuitie with King Iechonias and others. note The
beginning and end of his Prophecie are so obscure, that amongst
the Hebrewes (saith S. Ierom) none may reade these partes, nor
the beginning of Genesis, before the age of thirtie yeares. The
three first chapters conteyne a wonderful vision, wherin the Prophet saw God
as sitting in a glorious throne resting as it were vpon foure liuing creatures,
drawing strangely foure wheeles. note Secondly, in one and twentie chapters folowing
he prophecieth the destruction of Ierusalem and the Temple, with
the captiuitie of the people for their enormious sinnes. Thirdly in eleuen
more chapters, he prophecieth the like of diuers other nations. Fourtly, in
foure other chapters, he foresheweth the reduction of the Iewes from captiuitie,
but more especially the Redemption of mankinde by Christ, and the
glorious state of his Church. Finally, in the other nine chapters, he describeth,
but meruelous obscurely, his last vision of the restauration of the Temple,
Sacrifices, Priestes, and other religious thinges perteyning therto; but principally
concerning the Church of Christ, both militant and triumphant.
