We studied together in the Book of Zechariah, how foreknowledge can be a burden. So much of the weeping of Jeremiah was over the fact that he was forced to prophecy events that would come to pass because the people would not repent. The Lord required him to try anyway. It was a hopeless task. Ezekiel saw the same burden. 
No prophet but Isaiah is more poetic than Ezekiel. His writings are filled with chiasmus, considered the highest form of Hebraic poetry.
It is exciting to contrast these with the words of our modern Prophets who have said, even quite recently, that in our dispensation, if we will just hang on, exciting and better days are ahead. And so, it’s time to feast on the word…

The Lord tells Ezekiel that He is going to attempt to reach the people through a series of Role Plays that function like visual parables. He also decrees the length of the punishment that will be upon the people, including the little known clause given through the administration of Moses.
We will also discuss the secret of the Abomination of Desolation.

Ezekiel has been ushered up to the foot of the war chariot of the Living God. It is a unique vehicle more in the form of a palanquin or escorted litter, than a chariot. Whether Ezekiel was taken to God, or God had come to him, the effect was the same. Ezra said it best, “Who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner’s fire.”35 Ezekiel found himself face down on the ground before the royal presence. The kindness of our God is also here manifested.
Gratitude for the incomparable talents of William L. Dawson and Johnny Cash.

Ezekiel is the perfect book for us to flap our eastern wings because it contains imagery and teachings that are not accessible to a western mind. If you doubt me (and why would you?) do a search for yourself. You will find that there are acres of writings by some very smart people all trying to make sense of Ezekiel. They vary on a scale from deeply mysterious to pure science fiction. Some make very clever arguments such as: Ezekiel was possessed; delusional; high on some strange drug; fighting with madness; and even, visited by extra-terrestrials who convinced him that they were God. All of this would be laughable except that Ezekiel’s experience makes little sense from a western perspective.

You are about to embark upon a fabulous journey into the Book of Ezekiel. It may be one of the strangest experiences you will ever have with holy scripture. It is a book that you have never really studied before in Sunday School, Institute or Seminary. I think that will be clear soon enough and you can make that final judgement for yourself as to why. There are parts of Ezekiel which are forbidden to discuss in synagogues or publicly by Jews; which begs the question. Why? Why would God say things openly, if they were never to be spoken? It’s hard to hide that which God has spoken openly. Why are they concerned?
This season we will discover all of this and more!

The history of Israel knows at least 31 Zechariahs. We know the last of these by the Greek version of his name Zacharias, the Father of John the Baptist, whom the Lord Jesus Christ called "the greatest prophet born of woman." What? How can this be?

We can’t spend a season on the Book of Zechariah the Levite priest and prophet and not conclude it with the last of his name, Zecharias of the New Testament and the greatest prophet born from woman, his son John the Baptist.

This episode will answer many of the mysteries of John's birth, purpose and ministry. For more see the author's book John the Baptist  here.

The Book of Malachi was written by the Prophet Ezra as the closing chapter to the compilation that he was commanded to compile for the return of the Jews and Levites (with some Benjamites) to the Holy Land.
It was to be the Lord's final words until He sent His messenger, John the Baptist, to announce the coming of the Messiah, our Lord Jesus Christ. This episode also explores the curse mentioned by God upon the priests leading up to the return of Elijah in the Latter-days.

This is part 2 of a question from one of our listeners on sacred architecture. If you have not yet listened to  episode 64 on Moses's Tabernacle, you will want to as this episode expands on that one.

The Prophet Haggai was one of a handful of prophets who were sent back with Zechariah to prepare Jerusalem and the Temple for the return of the nation.

His little book, while not considered the most poetic of the prophets, does contain some wonderful surprises for our modern lives, as well as stands as proof that the Lord of Hosts (Jesus Christ) always keeps His promises to us, although not always on our timetables.

It's time to feast on the Word!
