“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.

“Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me” (Exodus 20:5).

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27).
