If the inner rocky planets are the "fiery stones" spoken of in Ezekiel 28 then this would shed some light on ancient prehistory, specifically what happened before the advent of mankind, the tragic rebellion of Lucifer, and his fall from "heaven."
The unknown eons before the biblical account of Genesis are mostly a mystery to man, but the bible does give us some clues. We do know that Satan had already fallen into sin before YHWH created Adam. Satan was in the Garden of Eden and he deceived Adam and Eve to commit sin against the Most High in an act of revenge for his fall from grace.
The bible hints at a prior civilization, possibly dominated by "serpents," led by the serpent cherubim Lucifer (Satan). We know that the Earth was once populated by a serpent race that walked upright (dinosaurs) because of the evidence found in the fossil record. This race of serpents reigned supreme and they apparently mastered the solar system if they "walked among the fiery stones."
Lucifer's seat was possibly located on a fifth planet from the Sun called "Rahab," destroyed in the war between him and YHWH:
"11 The pillars of the heavens quake, aghast at his rebuke. 12 By his power he churned up the sea; by his wisdom he cut Rahab to pieces. 13 By his breath the skies became fair; his hand pierced the gliding serpent. 14 And these are but the outer fringe of his works; how faint the whisper we hear of him! Who then can understand the thunder of his power?” Job 26:11-14
The fifth planet was on the "outer fringe" of the inner planets. The position of this fifth planet is now occupied by the asteroid belt which could be the remnants of Rahab since it was "cut to pieces."
Interestingly, Rahab "is a synonymous term for the DRAGON" according to the Encyclopaedia Biblica (Cheyne and Black, 1899). Satan, known as the dragon, lost his kingdom among these inner planets as a result of his war against YHWH. He may have initiated this war when YHWH revealed his plan to create man. Satan, in his pride and jealousy, did not want to lose his elevated position in the heavens by having to bow down to man who was to be created in YHWH's image! Even more insulting to Satan's pride was the fact that man was to be made "a little lower" than the angels.
Prior to this war, Lucifer was the highest cherubim priest and mediator between this race of serpents (possibly angelic) and YHWH. They were a technologically advanced civilization that spread throughout the inner solar system and possibly beyond. Cities were built on Earth and also probably among the other planets.
Jeremiah had a vision of the time immediately after this war but before the Earth was reformed and man was introduced by YHWH:
"23 I looked at the earth, and it was formless and empty; and at the heavens, and their light was gone. 24 I looked at the mountains, and they were quaking; all the hills were swaying. 25 I looked, and there were no people; every bird in the sky had flown away. 26 I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert; all its towns lay in ruins before the LORD, before his fierce anger." Jeremiah 4:23-26
Since the bible describes the Earth as formless and empty (or void) also in Genesis 1 we can put a time stamp on this vision of Jeremiah. Jeremiah saw the Earth as it was in the beginning of Genesis and he said that "all its towns lay in ruins." This would seem to indicate that there was a civilization that was destroyed previous to Adam. This must have been the serpent civilization ruled by Lucifer.
I was searching the firey stones long before I found your blog. Seeking God, asking for wisdom, knowledge, understanding and skills of understanding, prudence and discernment, I did find exactly to the letter what you have written here. Amazing! and .. there is much more.
