醫學教授說~先知以西結是羊癲瘋病患
先知(即撒滿教中的靈媒,乩童類)以西結以沮喪的預言與奉耶和華之命娶廟妓出名,以西結篇是舊約中最冗長無味和最隱晦難明的經書之一,以西結現已被診斷是史上記載的第一位羊癲瘋病患
聖地牙哥加州大學的神經學專家Eric Altschuler博士說,以西結是耶穌前600年前的先知,以前沒人研究知道他有這種病,而且以西結篇章有多少是他自已親手寫的,也都有問題
(按 Dr. Eric Altschuler (PhD, MD)現已為新澤西州醫學院教授 is a professor of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics at the New Jersey Medical School)
博士是在加州大學神經科的新科學會議上講述,他認為先知以西結有顳葉癲癇的情況。 他說以西結的症狀,有經常性暈倒如中邪,羊癲瘋發作後長時間不能說話,侵略性,妄想症狀(說預言)和喜好裝神弄鬼(見異象)。先知也可能有強迫性書寫障礙,醫學上稱為hypergraphia,另一特徵是○易成宗教激進份子
博士認為他的診斷有助於透視了解以西結書,旨在表明,癲癇是遺傳引起的,『如果你重視這書,就知癲癇的來源,如果沒這種古病例,我們就要探討這病是否環境所引起的』
以西結的預言,雖然還有些基本教義派如耶和華見証人喜引用,但大部份專家認為他的預言與異象都落空。
雖然以西結書的作者很明顯是來自以西結本人,但有學者表示:全書結尾的一段神諭的文字表達方式與開首的神諭及中間論述事件發展的文字表達方式有所不同,懷疑是後人在事件發生150年後,按照以西結原來的書寫風格而續寫
博士認為以西結羊癲瘋發作時昏厥與晃神,見到下面各種異象如火光等正是神經錯亂的現象
如
3.在四面的翅膀以下有人的手。這四個活物的臉和翅膀乃是這樣:在迦勒底人之地、迦巴魯河邊,耶和華的話特特臨到布西的兒子祭司以西結;耶和華的靈(原文是手)降在他身上
4.我觀看,見狂風從北方颳來,隨著有一朵包括閃爍火的大雲,周圍有光輝;從其中的火內發出好像光耀的精金;
5.又從其中顯出四個活物的形像來。他們的形狀是這樣:有人的形像,各有四個臉面,四個翅膀。
6.他們的腿是直的,腳掌好像牛犢之蹄,都燦爛如光明的銅。
Gloomy Ezekiel was an epileptic, says doctor

- The Guardian, Thursday 15 November 2001 10.25 GMTThe prophet Ezekiel, hitherto best known for his gloomy prognostications in one of the lengthiest and most obscurely-written books in the Bible, has been diagnosed as the first known epileptic.Which is no mean feat for Eric Altschuler, a neuroscientist at the University of California in San Diego, since not only does no one know much about Ezekiel, who probably lived 600 years before the birth of Christ, but there is also some doubt about how much of his book he wrote himself.
Dr Altschuler, whose talk to a meeting of the San Diego Society for Neuroscience has found its way into New Scientist, claims that the prophet probably had a case of temporal lobe epilepsy. He suggests that Ezekiels symptoms in cluded frequent fainting spells, episodes of being unable to speak, aggression, delusions and pedantry.
The prophet probably also had a compulsive writing disorder, medically known as hypergraphia, diagnosed by Dr Altshuler on the grounds that the book of Ezekiel is the fourth longest in the Bible, only a little shorter than Genesis - and that it rambles on a bit. "Its impenetrable. He goes on and on," he said.
Another sure sign, apparently, is Ezekiels aggressive religiosity, a trait not unknown among prophets.
Dr Altschuler argues that his diagnosis helps put the book in perspective and serves to suggest that epilepsy is genetic in origin: "Once you appreciate that, you can see where hes coming from. If there were no old cases wed have to ask if there was something wrong in our environment."
The neuroscientist is becoming something of an expert at long range diagnoses. Earlier this year, in the same magazine, he claimed that Samson may have suffered from antisocial personality disorder - which is probably what the Philistines thought when he pulled the temple down on top of them.
As far as anyone really knows, Ezekiel was a member of a priestly family in Jerusalem, sent into exile in Babylon by King Nebuchadnezzar about 597BC.
While there he had a series of visions, not only of God descending in a chariot, but also visions foreshadowing the destruction of Jerusalem in 586. After that came true, he softened his tone a bit, and foresaw the restoration of the people to whom God would grant a new heart and eternal bliss.
The prophet prophesied doom to foreign nations and the reunification of Israel, and he also included helpful building instructions for the reconstruction of the temple.
Although his ramblings are still cited by some fundamentalist sects such as Jehovahs Witnesses, most scholars now regard the prophesies as de void of serious or applicable meaning.
And, though Ezekiel may have supplied some of the inspiration, it is now thought likely that much of his book was written by scribes 150 years later, which may account for its rambling and repetitious nature.
Contemporaries ascribed Ezekiels fainting fits and trances to a touch of the divine hand - possibly a more charming if less prosaic explanation than Dr Altschulers.
