I recently became aware of a book: Blumrich, spaceships of ezekiel
the author had a degree in engineering and worked for nasa.
he somehow reached the conclusion that ezekiel saw a "landing craft".
I strongly disagree with the content at the website "spaceshipsOfEzekiel" which does not describe the book, with that title, fairly but does have some summaries I eyed.
the criticsm of verse 7 most interests me, because the translation matches the text "just fine" and is grammatically accurate. perhaps king james version is different but the hebrew supports "round" and the translators in king james had never seen a landing crafts legs! yet.
the hebrew letters "ogl" can certainly mean round.
the claim "translation error" for verse 7 is only relative to kjv, different- but can be an accurate translation of the hebrew text as preserved in jewish scrolls.
the wheels seem to me in verses 16-17 to describe a large "wheel" that can go in any direction without changing direction the scientific name is a tool used in rockets "gyro-scope" only large enough for a landing craft.

ALSO the comments on page\/ show a wording with a cynical attitude with no "real topic-al challenge"
http://www.spaceshipsofezekiel.com/html/spaceships_of_ezekiel_comments-chap-04.html
quote: "Oh, WOW! What an absolutely incredible stroke of luck!" this is a very cynical tone. and instead should have NOT WRITTEN this and limited to an attempt to challenge the topic. this demonstrates a bad site- perhaps by religious fanatic losing control.
****I want a site that is fair about the book.
another page that annoys me is the aeronautical direction for "drag".
it seems to me that a craft would cut the air "better" if it was pointy that is what the rocket builders do for going up pointy cone to cut the air. cutting the air would not slow it down and in fact the craft which nasa uses has a wider base coming down- and is explained to slow it down-
***so the picture on the page seems to me inverted! not just relative to how I understand drag but how nasa uses rockets up and splash-down craft. if you want to have much drag you do not cut.
the picture on this page
seems inverted. especially if we translate wheels with four wings as helicopter blades!. and the rest of the site is not worth your time. we need a real summary of the book.
