December 9, 2012 – Ezekiel 2 – 3

The eating of the scroll is such a great image.  Taking God’s word into you so that you can proclaim it.  As I was typing that, I just thought of the Eucharist and how much the eating of the scroll, the Word of God, can be related to the Eucharist, eating God.  I cannot imagine I am the first to make that connection, but I don’t know if I have ever heard it made.  I am going to do some reflecting on that.  What better image of Eucharist is there in the Old Testament.
