David Pawson begins this talk with the call of Ezekiel. He could not fulfil his priestly role because he was in exile from Israel in Babylon. Now the synagogue replaced the temple. His career as a prophet of God began with a vision which was quite strange, but David gives us an explanation. The 4 creatures of the vision represent all of God’s creation. Above them is the Creator on his throne. The wheels supporting his throne illustrate that God can be anywhere at any time. This was very significant during the Israelis’ exile as, until then, God’s presence had been static in Israel. The eyes of the vision relate that God can see everywhere as well. Although the messages the prophet had to give the people were severe, they were sweet to Ezekiel because they came with the encouragement of the vision he’d received. Ezekiel is an example of apocalyptic prophecy, an unveiling or revelation usually via visions. 27% of Bible verses have a prediction about the future and Ezekiel has a high concentration of them, and to date, over 75% have already come true to the letter. This 3-part series gives a very comprehensive study of this unique book.
