Ezekiel chapter 10

vs 12

Covered in eyes - there are few things more disturbing really. Especiall eyes on wheels. The symbolism is again the same - seeing all.

vs 13

Oh, good, they've got a name. They sound like a band, the whirling wheels.

vs 14

I'm so glad one face was the face of a cherub. That makes it so much clearer for me. Because obviously everyone knows what that looks like.

vs 15

So they're exactly the same? Why the long description again? Why not just reference it? "See page 1 for description". Because repetition was important, so that people remembered things, and it shows the link between visions too, I'm guessing.

vs 16

Yes, this is sounding disturbingly familiar.

vs 17

Damn spirits of living creatures living in wheels! Are they like hamster wheels? So confusing.

vs 18

Because this is where it was residing before, when Ezekiel saw the whole show at the Kebar River.

vs 19

So these cherubim are, in fact, making off with the glory of God. It's like the great Temple robbery, but instead of stealing the precious things made of gold and such, they are in fact stealing God.

I kid, of course. God wants to leave.

vs 20

I hope God told him, or he named them himself, because I don't otherwise really know how you 'realise something is a cherubim'.

Does that mean something other than what it says? Like, are the cherubim something we should just know about, as to what their role is and why it's important that they're not, say, seraphim?

vs 21

These repetitive descriptions, forgive me, are a little repetitive. As no doubt are my comments on their repetitivity.

vs 22

Sigh. At least it makes it easy to read... as easy as it is reading about odd cherubim figures.
