The Bible does not specifically mention airplanes, but it does contain imagery and prophecies that have been interpreted by some as referencing flight or swift transportation. In Isaiah, the prophet describes a scene where birds or winged creatures swiftly bring people to God's holy mountain, as seen in Isaiah 60:8. Ezekiel's vision of the whirling wheels and living creatures in Ezekiel 10:19 has also been the subject of various interpretations, including connections to modern modes of transportation. Meanwhile, the Great Commission in Mark 16:15-18 emphasizes the importance of spreading the gospel to all nations, which has been facilitated in modern times by advancements in transportation, including air travel.
