Eze 8:4 | MHM | STEP | v. 4 : The figure reaches out what looks like a hand and lifts Ezekiel by a lock of his hair. The Spirit lifts him up between heaven and earth and carries him in a vision to Jerusalem, to the temple. This shows that God’s Spirit can move people wherever He wants, even if it is only in a vision. Ezekiel is shown the city and the temple as if he is really there. Those who want to be close to God must be willing to leave behind earthly things and focus on Him (Psalm 27:8 ).
