Ezekiel 10:20

God's Presence Leaves The Temple

¹⁹ And the cherubim lifted up their wings and mounted up from the earth in my sight; when they went out, the wheels also were in front of them, and they stood at the entrance of the east gate of the LORD's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above. ²⁰ These are the living beings that I saw beneath the God of Israel by the river Chebar; so I knew that they were cherubim. ²¹ Each one had four faces, and each one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.
