Origen

  • “Ezekiel, e.g., received a roll, written within and without, in which were contained “lamentations,” and “songs,” and “denunciations;” but at the command of the Logos he swallowed the book, in order that its contents might not be written, and so made known to unworthy persons.” — editor's note: οὐαί: cf. Ezek. ii. 9, 10.
