Today I sat in on a class I'm thinking about taking which is a text study class on the Zohar, the primary book on Kabalah and Jewish Mysticism. An hour of the class was spent doing Chavrutah (partner) text study on the two primary visions of the "Ma'aseh Merkavah" (sort of like a doctrine of chariot visions?)in the Hebrew bible. These visions come in the books of Ezekiel and Isaiah.
So, I'll fill you in on what the sages extrapolated from these passages if I take the class, but if your in the mood to read some really amazing, beautiful, trippy, terrifying, powerful, etc. descriptions of Angels and G-d, check out the 1st chapter of Ezekiel and Isaiah chapter 6. Would love to hear y'all's take!
Love as always
