Definition: The word "Chronicles" in English means "history, narrative" or "record," and it can refer to the account of events written down during a specific time period. The term comes from the Hebrew word "kanah", which is related to the Hebrew word for "story," "account," or "recollection." In the Bible, "Chronicles" refers to the book that contains a collection of events recorded in detail by biblical authors like Josephus and Hadrian (who compiled the first comprehensive collection of historical records). This book covers the story of Jesus and includes accounts of his life and death. The term has been used throughout history to refer to both the writing process and the narrative form of accounts. The Bible is known for its use of this narrative style, which allows readers to follow along with the events described in detail without ever leaving the context of the book itself. In modern times, "Chronicles" is often associated with stories told as a series of chapters or sections within a larger work, such as a novel or screenplay. This type of storytelling involves telling multiple narratives at once, often using narrative devices like flashbacks or foreshadowing to reveal more information about the characters and their lives. Overall, "Chronicles" is a term that can be used in a variety of contexts—both in historical and literary works—describing a collection of events written down over time.

Definition: (2 Thessalonians 1:7) "Corinthians was a church in Ephesus, but the name did not occur to him until he was about six months old." And Paul says: "I know that you did well and were made perfect by your faith; and you have been made complete by the Holy Spirit who has given you life." (1 Thessalonians 4:12) "Thou wilt be a partaker of all things, and not an exception to them, because ye received a kingdom which cannot be taken back." (2 Thessalonians 3:7-9) "God's plan was for the churches in Ephesus to have a 'new creation' by God. The new creation is what we are now living through." (Romans 5:10) "And there were many who did not believe; so that we must also believe on Jesus Christ and be made complete, just as he was." (2 Corinthians 3:2) "Many of you may not have heard of this church in Ephesus. But it was the beginning of a new creation for all people. And so it is with the churches in all parts of the world."

Definition: The term "Daniel" is a Hebrew name that translates to "man of wisdom" in English, likely referring to an individual with exceptional intelligence and understanding. The Hebrew name 'Daniel' comes from the Persian word 'madad-e-daniel', which means "wise man". In the Bible, Daniel serves as a character in the story of the Book of Daniel: In Chapter 6 of the book, Daniel is asked by God to investigate a strange phenomenon that has been occurring on earth. He predicts that this event will occur again after four months and suggests it can be connected to King Nebuchadnezzar (the king of Babylon). This prediction is later confirmed when an angel comes down from heaven with the news of a war raging in Persia, and Daniel serves as a witness against the King of Babylon. He also prophesies that this event will lead to the destruction of the city of Jerusalem, but he warns against taking action until after his own days. Daniel's prophecy is not fulfilled, however, because Nebuchadnezzar is defeated by Cyrus the Great of Persia and the city of Babylon is ultimately destroyed in a fire that destroys both cities and Daniel himself. This event was also revealed through the angel to be an allegory for the destruction of the Jews at the hands of the Romans during the reign of the Seleucid emperor Titus. The Hebrew name 'Daniel' is often translated as "wise man" or "brilliant scholar", reflecting its association with intelligence and understanding.

He is often referred to as the "first priest" because he is considered the first to be ordained as a priest and the one who officiated at the dedication of the Temple in Jerusalem.

It is important to note that while Ezekiel was a priest, his teachings were not meant to be understood by the average person today, and he spoke in parables. He believed that the Holy Spirit would reveal true understanding of the Kingdom of God through the words spoken by Him. In conclusion, the word "Ezekiel" is a figure from the Old Testament who was appointed as the chief priest of Israel during the reign of King David and later became the first priest to be ordained by the Holy Spirit.
