10:1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above
the head of the a cherubim there appeared over them as it
were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of
a throne.
10:2 And he spoke to the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in
between the wheels, [even] under the cherub, and fill thy
hand with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and
scatter [them] over b the city. And he entered in my
sight.
(b) This signified that the city would be burnt.
10:4 Then the glory of the LORD c went up from the cherub,
[and stood] over the threshold of the house; and the house
was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the
brightness of the LORD'S glory.

temple.

to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when
he speaketh.
10:9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubim,
one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another
cherub: and the appearance of the wheels [was] as the
colour of a e beryl stone.
10:11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they
turned not as they went, but to the place where the head
looked they followed it; they f turned not as they went.
(f) Until they had executed God's judgments.
10:17 When they stood, [these] stood; and when they were lifted
up, [these] lifted up themselves [also]: for the g
spirit of the living being [was] in them.
(g) There was one consent between the cherubims and the
wheels.
10:18h Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the
threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.
