Why Did God Feel It Was Necessary To Show Ezekiel His Penis?

[Everybody Wang Chung]

In Ezekiel Chapter 1 verse 27 we get a description of God sitting on His throne. Ezekiel describes God's rather well-endowed "loins" which is translated from the word genitals.

Biblical scholar, Dr. Francesca Stavrakopoulou has a 1 minute video describing how the word loins was translated from the word genitals: https://youtube.com/shorts/FCzF183axN0? ... wknzyX1HND

Why did God think it was appropriate to sit on His throne with His genitals exposed for all to see? The more I learn about the Bible, the more confused I get. I guess God exposing His genitals might help us better understand Joseph Smith's actions? I now have a completely different idea of what God meant when He said, "Behold my glory." God truly is omnipotent.

27 And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.

So God appeared as a man? Imagine that.

You did your homework before going with the youtube short, right? I mean, you fact checked your source's claim, right?

I know you did.

I guess Ezekiel had seen Abraham’s hypocephalus!

27 And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.

This would take on truly Mormonistic proportions if God was singing that Jose Feliciano song with the line "couldn't get much higher".

Dr. Francesca Stavrakopoulou is widely considered to be one of the foremost biblical scholars in the world. She also served as Dr. Daniel McClellan’s dissertation advisor. If you are interested in learning about her credentials: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frances ... rakopoulou

I understand you’re upset. It’s not everyday we learn that God is an exhibitionist.

Can we conclude that God is a natural redhead - drapes and carpet?

I wonder if Ezekiel was able to distinguish if God was circumcised.

28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.

Take that, you homophobes - God showed Ezekiel that he supports LGBTQ+ rights!

Who took my two posts (addressing two separate issues) and combined them? What's going on around here? What freak of nature is going around combining our posts and for what purpose?

My patriarchal blessing promised that I would literally see the arm of God. Reading this about Ezekiel, I don't know whether to feel cheated or blessed.
