I've never heard of him, but I bookmarked your link to read later.
Honestly, it's all over the Bible that there is a divine council of plural Elohim.
My favorite example is Psalm 82:
82 God takes His position in His assembly;
He judges in the midst of the gods.
2 How long will you judge unjustly
And show partiality to the wicked? Selah
3 Vindicate the weak and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.
4 Rescue the weak and needy;
Save them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They do not know nor do they understand;
They walk around in darkness;
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, “You are gods,
And all of you are sons of the Most High.
7 Nevertheless you will die like men,
And fall like one of the princes.”
8 Arise, God, judge the earth!
For You possess all the nations.
Fun chatting with you too, nice to get some well thought out responses. I'm looking forward to checking out your link later.
Have you heard of or read "the spaceships of Ezekiel"?
Cool book, NASA engineer was trying to prove Erich Von Daniken wrong about spaceships in the Bible and Daniken got him to read Ezekiel.
The engineer was blown away by Ezekiel, wrote a book about it and patented the omnidirectional wheel from copying Ezekiels descriptions.
I do know that book on Ezekiel’s spaceship.
I was a huge fan of Sitchin too. He was a fraud though. Couldn’t actually read cuneiform. I’m among those who regard the Ark of Covenant as a technological device. I also think our Govt relentlessly gaslights us regarding UFOs as cover for their own horrific activities.
Psalm 82 was the trigger for Dr. Heiser as a Bible studies student (working on his doctorate iirc) to begin investigating the divine council hints scattered throughout the OT. You’ll find him interesting. He actually goes to UFO conventions to engage. He wrote a couple of novels as well. They’re great too. Like Tom Clancy, he can tell more truth if it’s disguised as fiction.
The link is just to a pithy (but long) essay on surviving inside bureaucracies. I found it extremely valuable in my career. He might have called it “manipulating psychopaths to keep your phony baloney job”.
