And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness. It was in my mouth as honey for sweetness - Psalms 19:10; Psalms 119:103; Revelation 10:9, where, as here, Ezekiel 3:14, the "sweetness" is followed by "bitterness," - the former being due to the painful nature of the message; the latter, because it was the Lord's service which he was engaged in; and his eating the roll, and finding it sweet, implied that, divesting himself of carnal feeling, he made God's will his will, however painful the message that God might require him to announce. The fact that God would be glorified was his greatest pleasure.
