Ezekiel 44:4

Then brought he me the way of the north gate before the house,
&c.] The north gate of the inward court, whither he was brought from the east gate, which was shut: this, and what follow, may have some respect to the churches in these our northern parts of the world, in their now declining circumstances, which are aptly represented in some following verses; but will hereafter be filled with the glory of the Lord, as follows: and I looked, and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of
the Lord;
as he had seen at the eastern gate, ( Ezekiel 43:2 Ezekiel 43:4 Ezekiel 43:5 ) : and I fell upon my face;
as he had done before, under a sense of the greatness and glory of the divine Majesty, and of his own vileness and unworthiness; see ( Ezekiel 43:3 ) .
