The wheel is most prominently featured in the visions of the prophet Ezekiel, where it serves as a powerful symbol of God's omnipresence and sovereignty.<br><br><b>Ezekiel's Vision of the Wheels</b><br><br>The most significant mention of wheels in the Bible is found in the book of Ezekiel. In <a href="/ezekiel/1-15.htm">Ezekiel 1:15-21</a>, the prophet describes a vision of four living creatures, each accompanied by a wheel intersecting another wheel. These wheels are described as "a wheel within a wheel" (<a href="/ezekiel/1-16.htm">Ezekiel 1:16</a>), and they are covered with eyes all around. The wheels move in concert with the living creatures, signifying the omnipresence and omniscience of God. The eyes on the wheels suggest divine awareness and insight, indicating that nothing is hidden from God's sight.<br><br>The wheels' ability to move in any direction without turning (<a href="/ezekiel/1-17.htm">Ezekiel 1:17</a>) symbolizes the unrestricted and sovereign movement of God's Spirit. This vision underscores the theme of God's glory and His active presence in the world, as the Spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels (<a href="/ezekiel/1-20.htm">Ezekiel 1:20</a>).<br><br><b>Symbolism and Interpretation</b><br><br>The wheel, as depicted in Ezekiel's vision, has been interpreted by theologians as a representation of the divine chariot, emphasizing God's majesty and authority. The imagery of the wheel within a wheel suggests complexity and the interworking of divine purposes that are beyond human comprehension. The wheels' movement in all directions without turning highlights the idea that God's plans are not confined by human limitations or understanding.<br><br><b>Other Biblical References</b><br><br>While Ezekiel's vision is the most detailed account involving wheels, other biblical references to wheels are more literal and less symbolic. For instance, in the context of warfare, wheels are mentioned in relation to chariots. In <a href="/exodus/14-25.htm">Exodus 14:25</a>, during the Israelites' escape from Egypt, God causes the wheels of the Egyptian chariots to swerve, hindering their pursuit: "He caused their chariot wheels to swerve and made them drive with difficulty" . This demonstrates God's intervention and control over the forces opposing His people.<br><br>In <a href="/proverbs/20-26.htm">Proverbs 20:26</a>, the wheel is used metaphorically to describe the actions of a wise king: "A wise king winnows out the wicked and drives the threshing wheel over them" . Here, the wheel is associated with judgment and the separation of good from evil, reflecting the king's role in maintaining justice and order.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context</b><br><br>In the ancient Near East, wheels were primarily associated with transportation and agriculture. The invention of the wheel revolutionized these areas, facilitating the movement of goods and people and improving agricultural efficiency through devices like the threshing wheel. The biblical use of the wheel as a symbol draws on these practical associations, using them to convey deeper spiritual truths about God's nature and His interaction with the world.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The wheel in biblical texts serves as a multifaceted symbol, representing divine presence, judgment, and the unfolding of God's purposes. Through the vivid imagery in Ezekiel's vision and other scriptural references, the wheel conveys themes of movement, sovereignty, and the intricate workings of God's will in the world.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Wheel</span><p><a href="/context/psalms/83-13.htm">Psalm 83:13</a>, translated "rolling thing" in <a href="/isaiah/17-13.htm">Isaiah 17:13</a>. Mr. Thomson, for many years a missionary in Syria, thinks the wild artichoke may here be referred to. This plant sends out numerous stalks or branches of equal length in all directions, forming a globe a foot in diameter. These globes become rigid and light as a feather in autumn, and thousands of them fly rolling and bounding over the plains, the sport of every wind. This "rolling thing" furnishes the modern Arabs with a current proverb and a curse. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>(Hebrews galgal; rendered "wheel" in <a href="/psalms/83-13.htm">Psalm 83:13</a>, and "a rolling thing" in Isaiah 17:13; R.V. in both, "whirling dust"). This word has been supposed to mean the wild artichoke, which assumes the form of a globe, and in autumn breaks away from its roots, and is rolled about by the wind in some places in great numbers. <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

In <a href="/proverbs/20-26.htm">Proverbs 20:26</a> <a href="/isaiah/28-27.htm">Isaiah 28:27</a> the rollers of a threshing wagon are meant (see AGRICULTURE).<br><br>(2) galgal, "rolling thing," generally in the sense of "wheel" (<a href="/isaiah/5-28.htm">Isaiah 5:28</a>, etc.), but the Revised Version (British and American) in <a href="/ezekiel/10-2.htm">Ezekiel 10:2, 6, 13</a> has "whirling wheels," an advantageous change. The "wheel.... broken at the cistern" in <a href="/ecclesiastes/12-6.htm">Ecclesiastes 12:6</a> is the windlass for drawing the water, and by the figure the breakdown of the old man's breathing apparatus is probably meant. In <a href="/psalms/83-13.htm">Psalm 83:13</a>, the King James Version has "wheel," but this translation (that of the Septuagint) is quite impossible; the Revised Version (British and American) "whirling dust" (sucked up by a miniature whirlwind) is perhaps right, but the translations proposed are end-less.<br><br>(3) gilgal, <a href="/isaiah/28-28.htm">Isaiah 28:28</a>, the roller of a threshing wagon.<br><br>(4) 'obhnayim, <a href="/jeremiah/18-3.htm">Jeremiah 18:3</a>. See <a href="../p/potter.htm">POTTER</a>.<br><br>(5) pa`am, <a href="/judges/5-28.htm">Judges 5:28</a>, literally, "step" (so the Revised Version margin), and the sound of horses' hoofs is intended.<br><br>(6) trochos, Sirach 33:5; <a href="/james/3-6.htm">James 3:6</a> (the King James Version "course"). In the former passage, "The heart of a fool is as a cart-wheel," the changeableness of a light disposition is satirized. In James the figure is of a wheel in rotation, so that a flame starting at any point is quickly communicated to the whole. Just so an apparently insignificant sin of the tongue produces an incalculably destructive effect.<br><br>The phrase "wheel of nature" (trochos tes geneseos) is used here for "the world in progress." It is not a very natural figure and has given rise to much discussion. the King James Version accents trochos ("course") instead of trochos (" wheel"). but the language throughout is metaphorical and "course" is not a sufficiently metaphorical word. The translation "birth" for geneseos (so the Revised Version margin). i.e. "a wheel set in motion by birth." is out of the question. as the argument turns on results wider than any individual's existence. "Wheel of nature" is certainly right. But a comparison of life to a wheel in some sense or other (chiefly that of "Fortune's wheel") is common enough in Greek and Latin writers, and, indeed the exact combination trochos geneseos is found in at least one (Orphic) writer (full references in the commentaries of Mayor and W. Bauer). It would seem, then, that James had heard the phrase, and he used it as a striking figure, with entire indifference to any technical significance it might have. This supposition is preferable to that of an awkward translation from the Aramaic.<br><br>See <a href="../c/course.htm">COURSE</a>.<br><br>Burton Scott Easton<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/5163.htm"><span class="l">5163. trochia -- the track of a <b>wheel</b>, hence a track, path</span></a> <br><b>...</b> the track of a <b>wheel</b>, hence a track, path.
