Have you ever wondered how the Divine Author of the Bible might play an unseen role in giving us our biblical text? In this episode we explain what textual weaving is: the ancient art of writing where the author carefully arranges the words into invisible columns and rows — like threads on a loom — so that when you read them horizontally you get the story, but when you read them vertically you discover a whole new objective and fixed level of meaning that turns the story into a brilliant tapestry. In Ezekiel 16, God hides a perfect 7×3 grid inside 63 verses:
* One column for every nation and lover Israel chased
* One column for every idol and false god she worshiped
* One column right in the middle for the heart that forgot God The result?
A chapter everyone calls “shocking” suddenly becomes a breathtaking picture of sin, judgment, and the God who atones for His unfaithful bride. If you’ve never heard of biblical weaving before, this episode will open your eyes to a whole new way of seeing Scripture — and show you why Ezekiel 16 isn’t just a hard chapter… it’s a masterpiece.
