Description
deviantMISSION member:*jmsnooks - Jonathan Snooks --
The Glory of God as described so vividly in the first chapter of Ezekiel. This is the longest description we have anywhere of the presence of YHWH. I would like to point out that this same manifestation of Gods presence is mentioned in other parts of the Bible as well. It is seen in Exodus when the mountain is covered in fire and smoke but it is only the platform and one of the feet that is seen. It is also mentioned a lot in Revelation and in Acts it is seen by Stephen as he is about to be stoned, but he also saw Jesus standing at the right hand of the father. Done with regular coloured pencils.

Most of the God pictures in the Bible depict the grandfatherly figure. Its unique to depict him as a vaguely humanoid made of rainbow colors

Breathtaking...the way you used the colors is extraordinary, and the figures of the Living Beings are amazing. Fantastic work! The only thing I could say would make it even better is if there was a bright light shining from the Lord Himself, as it is often described in the Bible. Great job, keep up the wonderful work!

Wow, this is VERY lovely! The colors are so vivid and full of energy.. I think it depicts that chapter in Ezekiel very well. I've wanted to draw it so many times, myself, but I never actually got around to doing it.
Wonderful, again. Thank you for this.
