Real aliens and UFOs sightings history part 2
The prophet Ezekiel's "vision", recorded in the bible, is thought by
some to be a UFO sighting. His description is of a strange "vehicle"
coming from the sky and landing near the Chebar River (or canal) in
Chaldea (now Iraq) in the fifth year of the Judean captivity (592 B.C.)
under Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon:
"What kind of 'machine' was this?" Ezekiel continues: And from the
midst of it came the likeness of four living creatures. And from this
was their appearance: they had the form of men, but each had four
faces, and each of them had four wings. Their legs were straight,
and the soles of their feet were like the sole of a calf's foot; and
they sparkled like burnished bronze. Under their wings on their four
sides they had human hands... each had the face of a man in front;
the four had the face of a lion on the right side... the face of an
ox on the left side, and... the face of an eagle at the back... and
their wings were spread out above; each creature had two wings, each
of which touched the wing of another, while two covered their bodies.
And each [creature] went straight forward... without turning as they
went... And the living creatures darted to and fro, like a flash of
lightning."
Who were these humanoid "occupants"? Space-helmeted, space-suited
astronauts with a strapped-on flying device? Or, perhaps,
extraterrestrial flying robots? The account continues:
"Now as I looked at the living creatures (real aliens), I saw a wheel upon the
earth beside the living creatures, one for each of the four of them.
As for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: their
appearance was like the gleaming of a chrysolite... being as it were
a wheel within a wheel... The four wheels had rims and they had
spokes; and their rims were full of eyes round about. And when the
living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the
living creatures rose from the earth, the wheels rose."
Were these humanoids going back and forth into a green-glowing
spacecraft surrounded by a ring of portholes? But there is more:
"...there was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like sapphire;
and seated above the likeness of a throne was a likeness as it were
of a human form. And upward from... his loins I saw as it were
gleaming bronze... and there was brightness... like the appearance
of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of the rain, so was the
appearance of the brightness round about... And when I saw it... I
heard the voice of one speaking."
Ezekiel is told that the Israelites have transgressed and are to be
punished unless they obey the Lord's commandments. Ezekiel is selected
as the messenger to his people and is taken on board ("the spirit
lifted me up"). The spacecraft takes off ("I heard... the sound of the
wheels... that sounded like a great earthquake"), and Ezekiel is
carried to Tel-abib where his fellow exiles are and where he sits
"overwhelmed among them seven days," traumatized by his experience.
(Ezekiel 1-3) (As we can see from contemporary UFO encounters, this
could be interpreted as an almost classic report of the abduction and
return of humans.)
