The 8-armed god could be referring to Hindu deities like Shiva, Vishnu, or Devi, who are often depicted with multiple arms symbolizing their power and ability to multi-task. However, an 8-armed deity could also refer to the Buddhist deity Avalokiteshvara, who is sometimes portrayed with multiple arms to symbolize compassion and the ability to help many beings at once.

What does ezequiel mean?

If you mean Ezekiel, and I think you do, then it is a combo of 2 terms: the verb 'to seize or hold fast' and coupled with the term for God. Thus it means 'strongly seized by God' or as in Chapter 3:8, it means, 'God strengthens.' Double name meanings are common in Scripture. Suffice it to say, Ezekiel, had all the equipment he needed to perform the tasks God had assigned for him.

Is Jove a name for almighty God?

No. Jove is a Latin name for a god in their pantheon of gods. Almighty God refers to El-Shaddai, the God of the Israelites. The word "god" is a generic term to refer to deity. However, God is not a "name" at all (unlike "Jove"), even though we capitalize it as though it were a proper name. No one knows God's real, actual name. When Moses asked what God's name was, he was told, "I AM WHO I AM" (or I will be who I will be). To know the name is to have control over the bearer of that name, and no person can have control over God by knowing God's name. This is also why parents have contol over their children. Genesis indicates that the man and woman must leave their parents to be united--they leave the control of the ones who named them, and become controllers of the next generation that they name and raise, and so on through the generations.
