And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.
Then the man in linen clothes, the one with the writing kit at his side, came back and reported: 'It's done. I did exactly what you told me to do.'
When God gives you a mission, you follow through and report back, no questions asked.
📚 Historical Context
In the book of Ezekiel, the prophet is in exile in Babylon, receiving visions from God about the judgment of Jerusalem due to the people's widespread idolatry and moral corruption. In this vision, God instructs a man clothed in linen with an inkhorn to mark the foreheads of the righteous who mourn the sins of the city, protecting them from the coming destruction, while others face divine wrath. After completing this task, the man reports back to God, confirming his obedience as described in this verse.
