CHAPTER 5
.
The Flying Scroll 1 I looked again, and there before me was a flying scroll.
2 He asked me, “What do you see?”
I answered, “I see a flying scroll, twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.”
3 And he said to me, “This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished. 4 The LORD Almighty declares, ‘I will send it out, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of anyone who swears falsely by my name. It will remain in that house and destroy it completely, both its timbers and its stones.’”

He replied, “It is a basket.” And he added, “This is the iniquity of the people throughout the land.”
7 Then the cover of lead was raised, and there in the basket sat a woman! 8 He said, “This is wickedness,” and he pushed her back into the basket and pushed its lead cover down on it.
9 Then I looked up—and there before me were two women, with the wind in their wings! They had wings like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.
10 “Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the angel who was speaking to me.
11 He replied, “To the country of Babylonia to build a house for it. When the house is ready, the basket will be set there in its place.”

CHAPTER 5
.
Four Chariots 1 I looked up again, and there before me were four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze. 2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black, 3 the third white, and the fourth dappled—all of them powerful. 4 I asked the angel who was speaking to me, “What are these, my lord?”
5 The angel answered me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going out from standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole world. 6 The one with the black horses is going toward the north country, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”
7 When the powerful horses went out, they were straining to go throughout the earth. And he said, “Go throughout the earth!” So they went throughout the earth.
8 Then he called to me, “Look, those going toward the north country have given my Spirit rest in the land of the north.”

A Crown for Joshua 9 The word of the LORD came to me: 10 “Take silver and gold from the exiles Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon. Go the same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah. 11 Take the silver and gold and make a crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jozadak. 12 Tell him this is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘Here is the man whose name is the Branch, and he will branch out from his place and build the temple of the LORD. 13 It is he who will build the temple of the LORD, and he will be clothed with majesty and will sit and rule on his throne. And he will be a priest on his throne. And there will be harmony between the two.’ 14 The crown will be given to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah and Hen son of Zephaniah as a memorial in the temple of the LORD. 15 Those who are far away will come and help to build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD Almighty has sent me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the LORD your God.”

NOTES ON MY SELECTION CRITERIA
A r t
Q u a l i t y
Often, artists misrepresent the Scripture, but unless the error is material, licentious or heretical I usually include the artwork, trusting that the Spirit is perfectly capable of defending Himself. So, with such forgiving filters, it means that you're seeing practically everything I'm finding.

Then, there is the human element: this is not actually a daily series, because I can only research, compose, edit and post five or six of these installments weekly. And because I only get to do this series once, I'm taking my time, chiefly by posting everything. If I find lots of art, I don't cherry-pick some and discard the rest; the one I throw out might be exactly the one that God wants to use to touch your heart. Instead, I line up all of them and then sort them into manageable bunches, often resulting in multiple days' episodes of the same story. Obviously, I like being thorough. Were you in a big hurry?
The Bible is a thick book, as you know; but we'll get there eventually, Lord willing—this is His project, after all. And always remember:
love, joy, peace, patience kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness & self-control is a fruit of the Spirit!. .
Art is merely the Toy Department of Bible study,
so I'm just having fun here—I hope you are, too!
Thank you for your understanding.Hebrews 11:6

After what could have been the most horrible day in my life, I opened the Bible at random and read Zechariah 6:
“Four Chariots
6 I looked up again, and there before me were four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze. 2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black, 3 the third white, and the fourth dappled—all of them powerful. 4 I asked the angel who was speaking to me, “What are these, my lord?”
5 The angel answered me, “These are the four spirits[a] of heaven, going out from standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole world. 6 The one with the black horses is going toward the north country, the one with the white horses toward the west,[b] and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”
7 When the powerful horses went out, they were straining to go throughout the earth. And he said, “Go throughout the earth!” So they went throughout the earth.
8 Then he called to me, “Look, those going toward the north country have given my Spirit[c] rest in the land of the north.”
The day was 9/11/01, and on that day I had witnessed four Planes, colored red and white (American Airlines) black and grey (United) flying, two to NYC, (North), one to the south (The Pentagon), and one to the west (Pennsylvania). The two bronze “mountains” were there as well (the Twin Towers).
Then, of course, came the “War on Terror”...patrolling the earth.
Of course, it may have been a TOTAL coincidence, and a total misinterpretation on my part, but we were all so emotionally shaken on that awful day twenty years ago, and I will never forget the shock I felt reading that particular Scripture portion, on that particular night, and what it said to me.
(Here is what the Scripture said to me)
“God is one the Throne. Nothing surprises Him. He is Omniscient. He sees the End from the beginning, and the Beginning from the End.
FEAR NOT.”
PS...I never shared that online before, because it was just too weird.
 | "Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!" |  | "God save all here!" |  |
Regardless whether your understanding and interpretation was correct, you certainly arrived at the correct bottom line of comforting reassurance in your hour of anxiety. How comforting that we can rely implicitly upon Him, knowing all the while not only that He is good thoroughly but also that He remains good perpetually.
One website reneged at the last moment, twice, but we soldier on!
Amen.
Thank you Dan for another great chapter and illustrations. Question: Why is wickedness always portrayed as female?
Had not occurred to me that it is. If so, it might relate to Eve’s beguilement by Satan. Others may have a more informed opinion. Meanwhile, I am a married man, so I’m not going anywhere near the humorous remarks which are trying to well up inside me.
Is it just me, or does the woman in post #10 really look like Gretchen Whitmer?
Many have said "There are no coincidences."
Nope, it ain't.
As a VERY happily divorced man...
...let me say...
...art and the Bible reflect reality!
*shrug* I was a bit disappointed that none looked like Pelosi..
You can all keep your remarks safely inside, I think I found an answer to my question! As valid as any other.

Good detective work! Seems quite reasonable.
Excellent! Thanks! As a nearly monolingual English speaker the assigning of genders to inanimate objects and free floating concepts isn’t something I normally think of (except ships are female, even if named after a male, unless you’re Russian, then ships are male...)
