Maka Roh itu mengangkat aku, dan aku mendengar di belakangku suatu suara gemuruh yang besar, tatkala kemuliaan Allah naik ke atas dari tempatnya,
Maka oleh Roh diangkat akan daku, lalu kudengar dari belakangku suatu suara yang amat gempita, bunyinya: Segala puji bagi kemuliaan Tuhan dari dalam tempatnya!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then the spirit took me up,.... Not the wind, nor an angel, but the Spirit of God; who took up the prophet from the ground, from the place where he was, among the captives by the river Chebar, and had seen the glorious vision described in the first chapter; and had had his call and mission, as expressed in the second chapter, and hitherto in this; and was carried by him to another company of captives, who were at another place by the same river, as appears by comparing Ezekiel 1:1, with Ezekiel 3:15; for this was not done in a visionary way, as Kimchi thinks, but in reality; not in spirit, but in body; just as the Spirit caught away Philip from the eunuch, Acts 8:39;
and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing; of the living creatures and wheels, as is afterwards explained:
[saying], blessed [be] the glory of the Lord out of his place; either out of heaven, the place where his glory is manifested; so the Targum, out of the place of his Shechinah or majesty; or out of the temple, from between the cherubim over the mercy seat, from whence he was about to remove, Ezekiel 10:4. These words may be considered either as a doxology of the church, and people of God, ascribing glory, blessing, and praise unto him; not only on account of the perfections of his nature, but because of his works of nature, providence, and grace, and even for his righteous judgments on men. Maimonides p, by his place, understands the essence of God. Or as a lamentation for the departure of the blessed and glorious majesty of God from the temple, which seemed to be threatened; for the words may be rendered, "the blessed glory of the Lord out of his place" q; that is, it is just ready to go out of his place.
p Moreh Nevochim, par. 1. c. 8. p. 12. q ברוך כבוד "benedictam gloriam Jehovae e loco ipsius, migrantem", Junius & Tremellius, Polanus.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
I heard behind me - The commission having been given, and the prophet transported to the place of his ministry, the chariot of the vision passes away with the proper tokens Ezekiel 1:24-25. A voice from above the firmament is now heard proclaiming the divine glory.
From his place - The place where the glory of the Lord had revealed itself in the vision. The words are to be joined to “saying:” put a comma after Lord.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 3:12. Then the Spirit took me up — This, as Calmet remarks, has been variously understood.
1. An impetuous wind carried him to the place where his brethren sojourned.
2. The Holy Spirit, which filled his heart, transported him in a moment to the place where the captives were.
3. Or, he was so transported with heavenly ardour in his mind, that he ran immediately off, and seemed to fly to the place where God commanded him to go.
The promptitude and impetuosity of his spirit seemed to furnish him with wings on the occasion. However this may be understood, the going to the captives was real.
A voice of a great rushing — This was the noise made by the wings of the living creatures that formed the chariot of Jehovah. See the notes on Ezekiel 1:0 and Ezekiel 10:0.
Blessed be the glory of the Lord — Probably the acclamation of the living creatures: "Let God be blessed from the throne of his glory! He deserves the praises of his creatures in all the dispensations of his mercy and justice, of his providence and grace."
