Troy expounded on

>hermeneutics

the science of interpretation of Biblical texts.

Von Daniken is notoriously crap, of course - he sees a tower, says "doesn't it
look just like a spaceship", immediately concludes that the Incas or whoever
were spacemen, and brings the whole ancient astronauts thing into immediate
disrepute.  But the more interesting point is, if Ezekiel really *did* see a
spaceship, how would he and the scholars of his time have interpreted it?
Possibly, one might hazard, in terms of the imagery we now think of as
Biblical?

I don't think E. Bloom wants to call the album "Ezekiel's Wheel" to describe a
vision of the Hebrew god...
