The man whose appearance was like bronze, whom the speaker sees in the visions of God
말하는 이가 하나님의 이상 중에 본 놋 같이 빛난 사람
Ezekiel 40:1–4: the speaker (“I”) says, “In the twenty-fifth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was struck, in the same day, the LORD’s hand was on me, and he brought me there. In the visions of God he brought me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, on which was something like the frame of a city to the south. He brought me there; and, behold, there was a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a line of flax in his hand and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.” The man says to him, “Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I will show you; for you have been brought here so that I may show them to you. Declare all that you see to the house of Israel.” Neither edition names the city that was struck. The Korean Revised Version names the land of Israel at 40:1 (이스라엘 땅으로 가시되) and reads at 40:2 그 땅에 이르러 (came to the land), where WEB ends 40:1 with “he brought me there” and reads at 40:2 “he brought me into the land of Israel”. The Korean Revised Version reads at 40:1 정월 십일 (the tenth day of the first month), where WEB reads “in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month”; at 40:3 모양이 놋 같이 빛난 사람 (a man whose appearance shone like bronze), where WEB reads “a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze”; and at 40:4 the man says that he brought him here to show him this (내가 이것을 네게 보이려고 이리로 데리고 왔나니), where WEB reads “for you have been brought here so that I may show them to you”.
