Biblical Clouds of Heaven
Clouds of heaven are described in many passages as being the form from which God's presence radiated a shekinah glory. This cloud was God's abode in the Old Testament. The cloud was over the Ark of the Covenant and appeared over the temples signifying God's presence within. It appeared to Moses on Mount Sinai and was before the children of Israel day and night leading them through the wilderness.
There were also clouds of heaven associated with Angelic visitations. These were objects that anyone left or entered Earth from. Elijah's ascension on a fiery chariot, Jacob's ladder with angels climbing down, even Jesus' ascension and promised return in the same manner was described as clouds. Num. 9:15, Num. 14:14, 2 Chron. 5:13, Isa. 19:1, Isa. 25:5, Ps. 104:3, Dan. 7:13, Mat. 24:30, 1 Thess. 4:17, Acts 1:9. In all of these texts the description and characteristics clearly show much more than a fluffy chunk of water vapory-cumulonimbus cloud.
Ezekial's wheels describe uncharacteristic details of something more than just a cloud. Within the UFO community this is the most often used text to prove nut and bolt UFOs were in fact the clouds of heaven. Much of Ezekial's experience included symbolic imagery. However, it was a literal event. Because of this symbolism the whole experience is seen as just a vision. Visions that are symbolic and aren't intended to be a literal story will never include names of people or specific geographical locations. When we do find names in context, it is telling us that this is literal.
While I agree with UFO researchers who make the point that this is an actual event, you cannot exclude the rest of the story that defines just what Ezekial saw. His conclusion in context is this,
" This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel, by the river Chabir; and I knew that they were the Cherubims." Ezek.10:20
What Ezekial saw he identified as a living creature. Was he just a primitive mis-identifying technology as something alive? By his certainty this was something he was already familiar with. He identified this living creature as Cherubim, an order of Angelic being. I believe Ezekiel, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, was impressed to include this important fact. This would require a further topical study of the clouds of heaven. If this is some kind of Biblical fact there would have to be other scriptures that confirm this.
Very interesting observation/theory.
