Contradictions and Paradoxes in Ezekiel 10:12

Check out Contradictions Catalog of Ezekiel 10:12 for the comprehensive list of verses that contradicts Ezekiel 10:12. Some key contradictions and paradoxes are described below.

According to Ezekiel, these creatures and their wheels were covered with eyes all around, which means they could see everything everywhere. This shows that God sees everything and knows everything too.

Ezekiel 10:12: And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, [were] full of eyes round about, [even] the wheels that they four had. [body: Heb. flesh]

Contradiction with Ezekiel 1:18

Ezekiel 1:18 describes the wheels as "full of eyes round about them four," which aligns with Ezekiel 10:12 rather than contradicting it, indicating consistency in the vision of the wheels.

Ezekiel 1:18: As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings [were] full of eyes round about them four. [and their rings: or, and their strakes]

Contradiction with Revelation 4:6

It describes "a sea of glass like unto crystal" alongside four beasts full of eyes before the throne, depicting a heavenly vision with creatures full of eyes similar to Ezekiel's description, rather than contradicting it.

Revelation 4:6: And before the throne [there was] a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, [were] four beasts full of eyes before and behind.

Paradox #1

Some people see a contradiction with this verse and other descriptions of the cherubim in the Bible, particularly in terms of their appearance and the number of their eyes. Different passages in the Bible describe cherubim with varying features, which might seem inconsistent to some readers.

Paradox #2

Ezekiel 10:12 describes a vision that includes eyes covering different parts of beings and objects. Scientifically, this idea of eyes all over bodies and wheels is not consistent with our understanding of biology and physics. Living creatures typically have a specific number and arrangement of eyes adapted for their environment, and objects like wheels do not have biological features like eyes. This vision is often interpreted symbolically or artistically rather than literally.
