The Four-Faced Visitors of Ezekiel
Orton, Arthur W.
Bible. Ezekiel -- Criticism, interpretation, etc.
Like any tourist in any age they would probably be most interested in
the territory around the pyramids. When they had finished here they
might want to look over the country around what is now Bagdad, but
_then_ only near the capital city of Nebuchadnezzar's empire. This is
about eight hundred miles away, an impractical trip by helicopter, so
they would return to the platform, climb to a few hundred thousand
feet, and scoot over in a few minutes. Here they would land again in
some uninhabited spot and repeat the maneuver. This country was
probably sprinkled with more people than they expected. Maybe that's
why this is the legendary flying carpet country, or maybe not. At any
rate, one lonely military prisoner, working by himself near the banks
of a stream must have seen them. Even if they did notice him, what
possible harm could he do? In the present state of the civilization
who would remember what he said or even believe him? I do.
