This was probably poetic and figurative, although it also is possible that God the Father has wings like the cherubim over the ark of the covenant. I wouldn't find that strange if he did, considering the descriptions of the cherubims and seraphims (see Isaiah 6).

Nah, 150 lbs is no problem for Jesus's hand. :-) Kevin wrote: > Who said he became invisible?

I was thinking of later on when he broke bread with them. Luke 24:31 (31) And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. The Greek word here is aphantos, which means, without visibility. It is a negative of the word used in Heb. 11:3 where it says that which is seen was not made of that which is visible.
