Ezekiel 10:8-22 - The Wheels And The Creatures

8 And under the wings of the Cherubims, there appeared the likeness of a man's hand.

9 I saw also four wheels beside the Cherubims, so that by every Cherub there stood a wheel. And the wheels were, to look upon, after the fashion of the precious stone of Tharsis, 10 yet unto the sight were they fashioned and like, as if one wheel had been in another. 11 When they went forth, they went all four together, not turning about in their going. But where the first went, thither went they after also, so that they turned not about in their going. 12 Their whole bodies, their backs, their hands and wings, yea and the wheels also, were all full of eyes round about them, all four. 13 And I heard him call the wheels Gilgal. 14 Every one of them had four faces: so that the one face was the face of a Cherub, the second of a man, the third of a lion, the fourth of an Eagle,

15 and they were lifted up above. This is the beast, that I saw at the water of Chebar. 16 Now when the Cherubims went, the wheels went with them; and when the Cherubims shook their wings to lift themselves upward, the wheels remained not behind, but were with them also. 17 Shortly, when they stood, these stood also: And when they were lift up, the wheels were lift up also with them: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.

18 Then the glory of the LORD was lift up from the threshold of the temple, and remained upon the Cherubims. 19 And the Cherubims flickered with their wings, and lift themselves up from the earth: so that I saw when they went, and the wheels with them. And they stood at the east side of the port that is in the house of the LORD. So the glory of the LORD was upon them.

20 This is the beast that I saw under the God of Israel, by the water of Chebar. And I perceived, that it was the Cherubims. 21 Every one had four faces, and every one four wings, and under their wings, as it were men's hands. 22 Now the figure of their faces was even as I had seen them, by the water of Chebar, and so was the countenance of them: Every one in his going went straight forward.
