The vision of the prophet Ezekiel in Qumran literature

The article deals with the adaptation of the vision of the prophet Ezekiel in the literature of Qumran, namely, in two texts of a liturgical nature - “4QBerakhot” and “The Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice”. Quotes and allusions to the book of Ezekiel are used in these works for mental prayer movement into the heavenly halls of God and their visualization. These works support the tradition of interpreting the vision of Ezekiel, which formed in the Old Testament apocryphal literature - the image from the first chapter of the book of Ezekiel develops through the continuation of the objectification of certain parts of the vision to worship them, or their subsequent animation as participants in the “The Angelic Liturgy”. The purpose of the study is to reveal the peculiarities of biblical exegesis during the Second Temple period by the example of interpreting the vision of the prophet Ezekiel. The subject of the research is Qumran literature.
