Whither goest thou? it is evident the prophet did not in so bold a manner inquire before, which may possibly be for that he apprehended this man to be one lesser than an angel; nor doth he ask the meaning of this hieroglyphic, but, understanding what it meant, the prophet inquires only where the platform was to be laid. To measure; to take the exact dimensions of it, that it may answer God's promise, and be capable to receive its inhabitants. Jerusalem; the city, which was to be built hereafter, but first the temple is to be built.
