Topical Encyclopedia

In the biblical context, "vision" refers to a supernatural revelation or insight given by God to individuals, often through dreams or direct communication. These visions serve as a means for God to convey His will, guidance, and future events to His people. Throughout the Scriptures, visions play a significant role in the unfolding of God's redemptive plan.

Old Testament

Visions are prevalent in the Old Testament, where prophets and patriarchs often received divine messages through this medium. One of the earliest instances is found inGenesis 15:1, where God appears to Abram in a vision, saying, "Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your very great reward." This vision reassures Abram of God's protection and promises.

The prophet Samuel, as a young boy, received a vision from the Lord, marking the beginning of his prophetic ministry (1 Samuel 3:1-15). Similarly, Isaiah's prophetic call is marked by a vision of the Lord seated on a high and exalted throne (Isaiah 6:1-8). Ezekiel's ministry is also characterized by vivid and symbolic visions, such as the vision of the valley of dry bones, which symbolizes the restoration of Israel (Ezekiel 37:1-14).

New Testament

In the New Testament, visions continue to be a significant means of divine communication. The apostle Peter receives a vision inActs 10:9-16, where a sheet filled with various animals descends from heaven, symbolizing the inclusion of Gentiles in the early Christian community. This vision leads to the pivotal moment of Peter's encounter with Cornelius, a Gentile centurion, and the subsequent outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the Gentiles (Acts 10:44-48).

The apostle Paul also experiences visions that guide his missionary efforts. InActs 16:9-10, Paul receives a vision of a man from Macedonia pleading for help, prompting him to travel to Macedonia and spread the Gospel there. Additionally, Paul recounts a vision of being caught up to the third heaven, where he hears inexpressible things (2 Corinthians 12:1-4).

The Book of Revelation, written by the apostle John, is a series of apocalyptic visions that reveal the ultimate triumph of God over evil. John describes his vision of the risen Christ, the messages to the seven churches, and the unfolding of end-time events (Revelation 1:9-20).

Purpose and Significance

Visions in the Bible serve multiple purposes. They provide guidance, encouragement, and correction to individuals and communities. They reveal God's plans and purposes, often offering a glimpse into the future. Visions also affirm the authority and calling of prophets and apostles, as seen in the ministries of Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Paul.

Moreover, visions underscore the reality of the spiritual realm and God's active involvement in human history. They remind believers of the sovereignty of God and His ultimate control over the course of events. As such, visions are a testament to God's desire to communicate with His people and to lead them according to His divine will.

Discernment and Testing

While visions are a legitimate means of divine communication, the Bible also warns of false visions and prophets.Jeremiah 23:16 cautions, "This is what the LORD of Hosts says: 'Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. They are filling you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.'" Therefore, discernment and testing of visions are essential, as emphasized in 1John 4:1, which instructs believers to "test the spirits to see whether they are from God."

In summary, visions are a profound and dynamic aspect of biblical revelation, serving as a conduit for God's communication with humanity. They are integral to understanding the unfolding of God's purposes and the advancement of His kingdom.

VALLEY OF VISION

(ge' chizzayon): A symbolic name generally understood to signify Jerusalem as being the home of prophetic vision (Isaiah 22:1, 5).

VISION

vizh'-un (chazon, chizzayon, mar'ah; horama, optasia): Psychologists find that man is prevailingly and persistently "eye-minded." That is, in his waking life he is likely to think, imagine and remember in terms of vision. Naturally then, his dreaming is predominantly visual; so strongly visual, we are told, that it is not rare to find dreams defined as "trains of fantastic images." Whether man was made this way in order that God might communicate with him through dreams and visions is hardly worth debating; if the records of human life, in the Bible and out of it, are to be trusted at all, there is nothing better certified than that God has communicated with man in this way (Psalm 89:19 Proverbs 29:18; compareAmos 8:11, 12 Hosea 12:10). If one is disposed to regard the method as suited only to primitive peoples and superstitious natures, it still remains true that the experience is one associated with lives and characters of the most saintly and exalted kind (1 Samuel 3:1 Jeremiah 1:11 Ezekiel 1:1 Daniel 2:19 Acts 9:10;Acts 10:3;Acts 16:9).

The vision may come in one's waking moments (Daniel 10:7 Acts 9:7); by day (Cornelius,Acts 10:3; Peter,Acts 10:9;; compareNumbers 24:4, 16) or night (Jacob,Genesis 46:2); but commonly under conditions of dreaming (Numbers 12:6 Job 4:13 Daniel 4:9). The objects of vision, diverse and in some instances strange as they are, have usually their points of contact with experiences of the daily life. Thus Isaiah's vision of the seraphim (Isaiah 6:2) was doubtless suggested by familiar figures used in the decoration of the temple at Jerusalem; Paul's "man of Macedonia" (Acts 16:9) had its origin in some poor helot whom Paul had seen on the streets of Troas and who embodied for him the pitiful misery of the regions across the sea; and "Jacob's ladder" (Genesis 28:12) was but a fanciful development of the terraced land which he saw sun-glorified before him as he went to sleep. Among the recurring objects of vision are natural objects-rivers, mountains, trees, animals-with which man has daily and hourly association.

The character of the revelation through vision has a double aspect in the Biblical narrative. In one aspect it proposes a revelation for immediate direction, as in the ease of Abram (Genesis 15:2 and frequently); Lot (Genesis 19:15); Balaam (Numbers 22:22), and Peter (Acts 12:7). In another aspect it deals with the development of the Kingdom of God as conditioned by the moral ideals of the people; such are the prophetic visions of Isaiah, Ezekiel, Hosea, and Micah, and the apoealypses of Daniel and John. The revelation for immediate direction has many correspondences in the life of the devout in all ages; the prophetic vision, dealing in a penetrating way with the sources of national growth and decay, has its nearest approach in the deliverances of publicists and statesmen who are persuaded that the laws of God, as expressed in self-control, truth, justice, and brotherly love, are supreme, and that the nations which disregard them are marked for ultimate and speedy extinction.

From the nature of the vision as an instrument of divine communication, the seeing of visions is naturally associated with revivals of religion (Ezekiel 12:21-25 Joel 2:28; compareActs 2:17), and the absence of visions with spiritual decline (Isaiah 29:11, 12 Lamentations 2:9 Ezekiel 7:26 Micah 3:6).

One may see visions without being visionary in the bad sense of that word. The outstanding characters to whom visions were vouchsafed in the history of Israel-Abraham, Moses, Jacob, David, Isaiah, Jesus and Paul-were all men of action as well as sentiment, and it is manifest from any fair reading of their lives that their work was helped and not hindered by this aspect of their fellowship with God. For always the vision emphasizes the play of a spiritual world; the response of a man's spirit to the appeal of that world; and the ordering of both worlds by an "intelligent and compelling Power able to communicate Himself to man and apparently supremely interested in the welfare of man.
