One of the most fascinating accounts of ancient flying machines can be found in a very unexpected place, The Bible...There, in addition to descriptions of what many believe are details of flying machines, we find a number of odd details about 'misinterpreted technology' that existed on Earth thousands of years ago.In the Book of Ezekiel, the prophet describes 'a flying chariot' that is supposedly composed of 'wheels within wheels' and was powered by no one other than Angels.The Ancient Astronaut Theory presupposes that this reference is clear evidence of ancient flying machines.On the other hand, skeptics and Bible scholars argue that the Book of Ezekiel does not describe literally flying machines, but suggest Ezekiel was speaking 'symbolically' about powerful enemies that Israel was facing.But descriptions of Flying Chariots can be found in a number of other cultures around the globe: The Ancient Hindu Culture for example...This raises a number of questions.Is it possible that the book of Ezekiel describes mythological enemies?Or, is it possible, as some authors suggest that the Book of Ezekiel offers the ultimate evidence of ancient alien visitation?And evidence of the existence of flying machines, thousands of years ago?Ancient Astronauts and EzekielEzekiel is considered the 6th-century BCE author of the Book of Ezekiel that reveals prophecies about the destruction of Jerusalem, the restoration to the land of Israel, and what some refer to as the Millennial Temple visions or the Third Temple.Ezekiel happens to be one of the protagonists both in the Book of Ezekiel and in the Hebrew Bible. Ezekiel also is a protagonist in Judaism, and also in other Abrahamic Biblical Texts.History suggests that Ezekiel arrived at Babylon in the first captivity of Israel and is mentioned, in a number of ancient texts, as a great Prophet.The name Ezekiel means 'God strengthens'.One of the key parts of the book of Ezekiel and one of the main reasons why we take into consideration what is written in the book is the fact that The Book of Ezekiel was written in the first person: I saw this... I observed that... I went there...The book describes something observed in the first person, unlike many other Biblical texts that are written in the third person.One of the key parts of the Book of Ezekiel is when Ezekiel mentioned witnessing a 'wheel chariot' come from the heaven towards him. Inside this wheel chariot were beings with the 'likeness of man'.The Book of Ezekiel makes reference of a chariot - a flying vehicle - without clear means of propulsion, although it was powered by divine energy, celestial energy. An energy that moved. An energy that had sound.Those descriptions are interpreted by many people as technology. Modern technology, but it was modern technology that was misinterpreted by people in the past.There's a windstorm, there are flashes of lighting, there are clouds, lights and altogether it's a magnificent spectacle, especially for someone who lived two thousand years ago.Furthermore, Ezekiel even describes the composition of the chariot that came down from the heaven as appearing to be made out of glowing metal.Ezekiel describes in his book something fascinating coming down from heaven, making the Earth tremble.It was something, unlike anything he had seen before. It was powerful, it was glowing. From it came beings that resembled humans but were altogether different.So what did Ezekiel witness, if he witnessed anything at all?Could he have really witnessed a flying chariot and angles resembling human being
