“And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in mine house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me.”
Sixth-year dating establishes new visionary experience; divine hand falling upon prophet indicates divine compulsion; Ezekiel did not summon vision but is seized by it.
