EZEKIEL 3:1
 

Moreover He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find; eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.” [NKJV]
 

“Son of man,” He said to me, “eat what you find here. Eat this scroll, then go and speak to the house of Israel.” [BSB]

Like a "Talking Wine" that inspires whoever drank it to talk in certain ways of certain things, I found some holy communion or spiritual Handwritings give people utterances to speak forth the Words of God soon as those people have eaten and digested them.

When Ezekiel must have eaten up the letter scroll, then he would be speaking them from his belly and heart as "Living Epistles." You may recall that "Living Waters" flow from within man's belly and heart upward and outward, making the him a fountain/spring.

Immediately God made the man see the nature and extent of the Book that was full of written Lamentations, Mourning and Woe, God instructed the man to eat what he found by eating the Book right there and right then, afterwards he would go and speak to house of Israel. There's no metaphor in this, but plain and literal.

This means God changed the Handwritten letter from being "Holy Scriptures" into being "Holy Communion" from God to Ezekiel. So Ezekiel did not return from God to the house of Israel bearing a book or scroll in his hand but in his inward parts, unlike Moses had done in coming down from the Mountain bearing two tablets of Stone with God's Handwriting on them in his hands, which Moses quickly broke before letting the house of Israel see them. 

[Exodus 32:15-16,19-20] —  "And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written. And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven on the tables. … And it came to pass, as soon as he came near to the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mount. And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strewed it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it."

Here are the basic similarities and differences between "Moses' occasion" and "Ezekiel's occasion."

*1* — In both instances, God told these men of God that the people, house of Israel, He's sending them to speak, are rebellious or stiff-necked people. Yet Moses lost it before them, not Ezekiel.  

*2* — In both instances, God's Handwriting was on the Letters He delivered to these men of God, and the letter was written both front and back as God usually does whenever He writes a letter on small piece,  instead of writing on one side-page and leaving the opposite side blank as covering. The difference was that to Moses it was written on tablets of Stones front and back, but to Ezekiel it was written on Scroll, not on tablets of stone, the same front and back.

*3* — In God's Handwritten letter through Moses, the nature of the things therein was the Ten Commandments forming the foundation of the Law of Moses. But in God's Handwritten letter through Ezekiel, the nature of the things therein include Lamentations, Mourning and Woe.

*4* — Moses did not have his own as Holy Communion but broke them, but made the golden calf idol into a water-juice or unholy communion he forced those people to drink. (However, Moses recovered a replacement for the first ones he broke/wasted). On the other hand, Ezekiel was given his own to eat as Holy Communion before he began to speak to the house of Israel.

And though Ezekiel devour it, he lived it and ministered it as living epistle according as the Lord gave him utterances by which he spoke them forth as, "Thus says the Lord" rather than making reference to things therein as "It is Written:" He ate up the "Written' form but spoke forth the 'Thus says the Lord" form.

[Hebrews 8:10‭-‬11 GNT] — Now, this is the covenant that I will make with the people of Israel in the days to come, says the Lord: I will put My laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be My people. None of them will have to teach their friends or tell their neighbors, ‘Know the Lord.’ For they will all know Me, from the least to the greatest.

"Eat what you find," God told the son of man. What have you found that you may eat? I found God's Words, and I ate them; and now His Word abides in me and I abide in Him, and His Words give me joy and delight. As it is written,

[Jeremiah 15:16] — "Your words were found, and I did eat them; and your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart: for I am called by your name, O LORD God of hosts."

Do not begin eating the Words without finding them first. In this respect, the Word of God you find is that which you should eat. Like Jeremiah, like Ezekiel, or like John the Beloved:

[Revelation 10:8‭-‬11 NKJV] — Then the voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again and said, “Go, take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the earth.” So I went to the angel and said to him, “Give me the little book.” And he said to me, “Take and eat it; and it will make your stomach bitter, but it will be as sweet as honey in your mouth.” Then I took the little book out of the angel’s hand and ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth. But when I had eaten it, my stomach became bitter. And he said to me, “You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, tongues, and kings.”
