#60 Contradictions in the Bible: Clouds
Napsal(a) Jonathan S. Rose
Title: Thank Heavens It's Cloudy
Topic: Word
Summary: An exploration of why Scripture would be so shrouded in strange statements and apparent contradictions. When we see how overwhelming it is to see God (with examples from Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, John on the isle of Patmos, etc.) we realize we are blessed by the clouds of Scripture that protect us from the full force of the glory.

Ezekiel 1:26-28
26
Above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and on the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man on it above.
27
I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his waist and upward; and from the appearance of his waist and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness around him.
28
As the appearance of the rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Yahweh. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
