Hare?!

Random passages in the Bible can be confusing and lets face it, rather odd at times, but yesterday that confusion was pushed to a new limit!
Mark gave a 'word' to one of our mission team about God doing strange and uncomfortable things but them being good things and thought of Ezekiel:
Ezekiel had the priviledge of being taken by the hair of his head and lifted up between earth and heaven (see Ezekiel 8:3).
However...replace the 'of his head' with 'by his head' and you can come to the same conclusion a certain member of our mission team did... She saw Ezekiel being carried off by a hare - I'm not sure which image is more random - being lifted up by his hair or carried off by a hare - any thoughts?!
Once again, our English language has failed us, but at least all the homophones provide us with a few laughs!
