The words of prophet and priest Ezekiel echo across the centuries from the distant past. He was a captive who was torn away from his homeland, Israel, and brought to the land of Babylon. On his thirtieth birthday, Ezekiel had a dazzling vision of God on a heavenly throne with incredible wheels stretching from heaven to earth and accompanied by strange and wonderful winged creatures.

Who is this odd prophet who engages in outlandish performance art on the streets and testifies for God on the affairs of Israel and the nations of the world? Who is this seer who paints fantastical word pictures of apocalyptic doom and then of a restored temple resplendent with ethereal emblems?
His vision of the departure and return of the glory of God begins in historical Israel but concludes with God’s promises about the Messiah and the future of people on earth. Speaking from within the pattern of the mysterious, bizarre, and marvelous emerges a powerful word of hope and encouragement to believers today.
