Ezekiel: God who travels Chapter 6
Wipe out memory loss
I have not read anything in the bible about the way God arrives in some plane of existence where it is neither heaven nor earth and then displayed something grand and stunning except what this prophet Ezekiel wrote just to address a major human flaw.
God talked to Moses, not face to face but no mention of these wheels whatsoever. God walked with the Israelites with the pillar of fire but not the wheels or faces of these ranks of angels explicitly described by Ezekiel.
This only means one thing: Ezekiel saw the stunning glory, spectacular beauty, and heavenly beings working behind the veil of human realms and it became unforgettable. I think Ezekiel may have been wanting more of that vision than this human life. He may have felt immense emptiness after experiencing God's presence. So he may have become lonelier, outcast, and had been strange after the heavenly encounter. He might have that "wanting to forget" all of this earthly life just to be with God. While on earth, human suffers, are devastated, and become strangers to their promised land.
If Ezekiel was a prophet living today, would we see him as he is or treat him as a mentally challenged person? The Bible gave an account of his own life exposed to many generations to read and understand what he became after this angelic heavenly encounter. Yet no one in this human existence could explain further or help humanity to understand Ezekiel.
How far are we from where Ezekiel started to reveal God's appointed time? This is not an easy task. It is like a linguistic approach needed to be done to wipe out the memory loss of humans in earth, that there is God and He shall come an appointed time.
Do we humans forget often who is God?
To remind humans, God has to meet Ezekiel and receive strangeness instead of recognition?
How far are we from God?
Did God really make himself distant from humans and so humans treat God out of this world?
Is God himself became an alien to this world he personally created?
If the answer to all of these questions is yes, then I think the main human flaw is "memory loss"
And so God stressed out these lines to Ezekiel over and over: "They will know that I am the Lord."
