Bible Question:
If I understand it correctly, Ezek 3:14 is not a leading verse to v15. Verse 14 was describing a spiritual expereience of Ezekiel taken up in a vision where as after his such experience/vision, he went to sit beside the river Chebar at Tel-ab for 7 days in grieves. or (to my understanding, it is unlikely so) the Spirit lifted him up and took him away to sit beside the river Chebar at Tel-ab for 7 days in grieves? Thank you in advance for helping me to understand better. Shalom Azure |

Bible Answer: Dear Sister Azure, I do not doubt that Ezekiel was literally transported from one location to another, similar to the experience of Philip in Acts 8:39-40. Contrary to our romantic and silly imaginings, the experience of a theophany is probably one of the more terrifying thing that can happen to a human being. God's incredible holiness, power, and majesty is more than simply stunning, but enormously frightening and dismaying (viz. Judges 6:22; 13:22-23; Job 42:5-6; Isaiah 6:5-8; Jeremiah 23:9; Daniel 10:7-8; Habakkuk 3:16; Matthew 17:6; Luke 5:8; Revelation 1:17). The effect of Ezekiel's theophany was so traumatic that all he could do was sit there desolate, astonished, and stupefied for entire week (v3:15). Indeed, the experience was so traumatic that the Lord had to intervene (v16). In Him, Doc |
