In this "Step into Scripture" episode, hosts Tina and Matt Wilson dive into the readings from their year-long chronological Bible plan, focusing on Lamentations and Ezekiel. They start by introducing the Blue Letter Chronological Bible Reading Plan, available on YouVersion, and encourage listeners to enhance their study with the "Step into Scripture" book on Amazon.
This week’s readings cover Lamentations 3-5 and Ezekiel 1-20. Tina and Matt discuss Jeremiah’s profound grief over Jerusalem’s destruction, an event still commemorated by Jews on Tisha B'Av. They then transition to Ezekiel, noting his similarities to Jeremiah—both were priests during Judah's final kings and shared messages of judgment and hope.
A key part of the episode is Ezekiel’s extraordinary vision. The hosts unpack its symbolism, explaining how the four creatures, each with four faces—human, lion, ox, and eagle—represent God’s dominion over all life. The wheels within wheels, full of eyes, signify God’s omnipresence and all-seeing nature. They also discuss the significance of the wings in the vision, tying them to biblical themes of God’s unchanging nature and His presence.
Matt and Tina reflect on the radiant, indescribable majesty of God in Ezekiel’s vision, emphasizing the humility it inspired in the prophet. They explore how these glimpses of God’s glory deepen our understanding of His covenant faithfulness and inspire us to live in humility and worship.
The episode concludes with questions for listeners to ponder, such as the meaning behind the wheels in Ezekiel’s vision and how this encounter with divine majesty can inspire a life of service and reverence.
