1 | vision or physical or both | Ezek 3:14 | azurelaw | 200684 | ||
Dear Brother Doc, Thanks for your input. However, further help is needed. I have no problem with the power of the Spirit to transport anyone as in the case of Philip you cited. For the case of Ezekiel, he should be amidst of the exiles beside the river Chebar already (see 1:1) before the vision came upon him. So, do you mean that Ezekiel had been taken away to somewhere else (not recorded in the scripture) per v14 and back again to the riverside of Chebar (v15)? If that's the case, it might be much clearer to say "the Spirit lifted me up and took me away to the side of river Chebar" (I definitely have no intention to twist scriptures). Meanwhile v15 "Then I came..." is more in the sense of an active voice. So, to me, v14 and v15 appeared to be describing two individual instances - one both spiritual and physical and the other physical. (Well, this might not be a proper classificaiton, hope you understand what I mean). Perhaps I have missed something. Thanks again for enlightening this confused mind :-) Shalom Azure |

Dear Sister Azure, Sorry for wandering off into the other topic. It is one of those subjects about which I am passionate, probably as a consequence of the particulars of my own conversion. Anyway, you asked, "So, do you mean that Ezekiel had been taken away to somewhere else (not recorded in the scripture) per v14 and back again to the riverside of Chebar (v15)?" (sic) I do think that verse 14 does, indeed, suggest that Ezekiel was "taken up" during the vision to finally return to his starting point. At least, that is the impression that Ezekiel had of the experience. In Him, Doc |

Dear Brother Doc, Thanks for your confirmation. I would have to admit that my question is not the focus of the entire chapter. As to your note about theophany (again, you taught me a new term, thanks) in your previous post with those scriptures, I completely agree with you. The Lord is Holy. Mal 3:2 "But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap. Shalom Azure P.S. Perhaps you could share something about your conversion with us ONLY IF YOU WILL. |
