The Key Word — יָצָא, yatsa'generated
The verb יָצָא (yatsa') means to go out or come out, indicating movement from one place to another. In this verse, it is used in the Hiphil form, meaning that someone else is causing the action — in this case, the man is leading Ezekiel out.
This word can convey various actions, such as departing, escaping, or emerging, and it applies to both animate and inanimate subjects. The context here highlights the transition from the inner sanctuary to the outer court, marking a significant movement in Ezekiel's vision.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
All translations agree on the basic meaning of the verse, describing Ezekiel being led out to the outer court and the chambers opposite the temple.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is יָצָא, he brought out, which governs the entire sentence. It is followed by a prepositional phrase indicating direction and several noun phrases that describe the locations and objects involved.
The structure emphasizes the action of leading Ezekiel out and the specific locations he is brought to, illustrating the detailed nature of the vision.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint uses the Greek word ἐξάγω to translate יָצָא, which also means to lead out. This choice maintains the sense of movement from one area to another, similar to the Hebrew.
The translation reflects a direct correspondence to the action of being brought out, preserving the original intent of the Hebrew text.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.

The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
צָפוֹן (tsaphown) means 'north' and is derived from a root meaning 'hidden' or 'dark.' It is used specifically to refer to the northern direction, often associated with gloominess and the unknown. The term also appears in the context of a name, 'Zaphon,' which similarly denotes the north.

See EAST. The Babylonians and Assyrians are represented as coming from "the north," because they invaded Israel by a northern route in order to avoid the desert, Jer 1:14 46:6,24 Zep 2:13. "Fair weather," says Job, or golden weather, "cometh out of the north," Job 37:22. This is as true in Syria and Arabia now as it was three thousand years ago. A traveler there remarks, "Our friends, who have been long residents, informed us that we should have fair weather for our start on the morrow, as the wind was from the north."
"... And so we have found it come to pass that the clouds of a golden hue always followed upon a north wind, and indicated a clear day; and as in the times of the Savior, we could always say when it was evening…
