Then God's spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the loud roar of a voice that said, "Praise the glory of the LORD in heaven above!"

The power of the LORD came on me with great force, and as his spirit carried me off, I felt bitter and angry.

He reached out what seemed to be a hand and grabbed me by the hair. Then in this vision God's spirit lifted me high in the air and took me to Jerusalem. He took me to the inner entrance of the north gate of the Temple, where there was an idol that was an outrage to God.

In the vision the spirit of God lifted me up and brought me back to the exiles in Babylonia. Then the vision faded,

I felt the powerful presence of the LORD, and his spirit took me and set me down in a valley where the ground was covered with bones.

In a vision God took me to the land of Israel and put me on a high mountain. I saw in front of me a group of buildings that looked like a city.

What if the spirit of the LORD carries you off to some unknown place as soon as I leave? Then, when I tell Ahab that you are here and he can't find you, he will put me to death. Remember that I have been a devout worshiper of the LORD ever since I was a boy.

and said, "There are fifty of us here, all strong men. Let us go and look for your master. Maybe the spirit of the LORD has carried him away and left him on some mountain or in some valley." "No, you must not go," Elisha answered.

When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took Philip away. The official did not see him again, but continued on his way, full of joy.

Take me with you, and we'll run away; be my king and take me to your room. We will be happy together, drink deep, and lose ourselves in love. No wonder all women love you!

I know a certain Christian man who fourteen years ago was snatched up to the highest heaven (I do not know whether this actually happened or whether he had a vision---only God knows).

(SEE 12:3)

Then the man took me through the north gate to the front of the Temple. As I looked, I saw that the Temple of the LORD was filled with the dazzling light of his presence. I threw myself face downward on the ground,

Then the cloud covered the Tent and the dazzling light of the LORD's presence filled it.

As the priests were leaving the Temple, it was suddenly filled with a cloud

shining with the dazzling light of the LORD's presence, and they could not go back in to perform their duties.

(SEE 5:11)

They were calling out to each other: "Holy, holy, holy! The LORD Almighty is holy! His glory fills the world."

I will overthrow all the nations, and their treasures will be brought here, and the Temple will be filled with wealth.

The new Temple will be more splendid than the old one, and there I will give my people prosperity and peace." The LORD Almighty has spoken.
