    The River That Flowed From The Temple In Jerusalam

     | 8,999 views

    In Ezekiel 47, The prophet receives a vision of the River flowing from the Temple and he is invited to cross the River at various crossing. What does each crossing signify.

    Ezekiel 47: 1-12 I love this passage of Scripture, not least because in Ezekiel’s time there was no river in the City of Jerusalem and so it would be impossible for a river to flow from the Temple. You may well say to me, not so. And I will concede that in 2011, while Jerusalem was in the ...read more
