Bible Question:
Hi, is Ezekiel upset because people are assuming his words are symbolic? Do you think that Moses would be surprised if he found out that people sometimes say that the creation stories are symbolic? Let me know what you think. Ryan |
Bible Answer: Greetings Ryan, "20:49 This demonstrates the elders' (v.1) refusal to comprehend Ezekiel's clear message. To the unwilling heart, there was no understanding." (1) Jesus said, "Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand." [Matthew 13:13] Blessings to you, Makarios (1) The MacArthur Study Bible, 1997, Word Publishing, John MacArthur, pg. 1178 |
