Cherubim » The glory of God exhibited upon
Now over the heads of the living beings there was something like an expanse, like the awesome gleam of crystal, spread out over their heads.
Now above the expanse that was over their heads there was something resembling a throne, like lapis lazuli in appearance; and on that which resembled a throne, high up, was a figure with the appearance of a man. Then I noticed from the appearance of His loins and upward something like glowing metal that looked like fire all around within it, and from the appearance of His loins and downward I saw something like fire; and there was a radiance around Him. As the appearance of the rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the surrounding radiance Such was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD And when I saw it, I fell on my face and heard a voice speaking.
Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub to the threshold of the temple, and the temple was filled with the cloud and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the Lord.
Then the glory of the Lord departed from the threshold of the temple and stood over the cherubim.
These are the living beings that I saw beneath the God of Israel by the river Chebar; so I knew that they were cherubim.

Moreover, the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when He speaks.
Then the cherubim lifted up their wings with the wheels beside them, and the glory of the God of Israel hovered over them.
