Ezekiel 2:8 gives the initial command to eat what God provides — the same instruction repeated in 3:1 before eating the scroll.

Ezekiel 2:9 describes the hand holding the scroll that the prophet is about to eat — the immediate visual context.

Ezekiel 2:1 begins this same commissioning scene with 'son of man' and the command to stand, setting up the scroll-eating command here.

Ezekiel 2:3 sets the mission context: God sends Ezekiel to rebellious Israel — the reason he must eat the scroll before speaking.

Revelation 10:9 directly parallels Ezekiel's command to eat a scroll, adding the sweet-bitter effect that Ezekiel also experienced (Ezekiel 3:3).

In Jeremiah 15:16, the same metaphor of eating God's words appears—both prophets internalize the divine message as joy.

Jeremiah 36:2 also involves a scroll of God's words, but the command is to write rather than eat—both highlight the scroll as prophetic medium.
