“The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword” (Ezekiel 32:21).

“The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage” (Psalm 16:6).

“Then He remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is He that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of His flock? where is He that put His holy Spirit within him?” (Isaiah 63:11).

“And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of the living creature was as the color of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above” (Ezekiel 1:22).

“And He said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee” (Ezekiel 2:1).

This is the first of more than 90 times in which the prophet Ezekiel is addressed by God as “Son of man.” This seems quite remarkable, as this title also was Christ’s favorite title (using it 80 times), always applying it to Himself.
