1 | Very interesting... | Ezek 1:10 | Bows44 | 152088 | ||
Very interesting. So what you are saying, (or should I say what they are saying,) is that originally the cherubim had a face of a bull, but Ezekial convinced God to recreate them with a youthful face to replace the bull face giving them two human faces, one young and the other older? Where is the scriptural basis for this concept? Or is this just Jewish [man's] tradition? | ||||||

This appears to be just Jewish tradition. If it were in aramaic instead of Hebrew I could understand wanting to change the word bull because it would sound too much like Torah but this is shir in Hebrew. I don't understand how Friedrich Delitzsch connected the Hebrew with the Assyrian saying "kirubu" equals "shedu" (the name of the winged bull). If it were just a miscopy I can see how a final bet could be mistaken for a resh or a dalet but it is less easy to see how the beginning shin might be taken for a kaf and a resh unless it looked messy. | ||||||
