When the glory of God rose from the Jerusalem temple and moved east into exile, Ezekiel saw it in vision—but Nephi lived it in history. The concept “When Glory Goes East” reveals how the Book of Mormon’s brass plates became the living ark of God’s presence, carrying covenant light into the wilderness. With both prophets (Ezekiel & Nephi), the message is the same: God is never confined to stone; His glory moves with His people wherever faith endures.
