Ezekiel 10

Studie

   

1 Then looking, I saw that on the arch which was over the head of the winged ones there was seen over them what seemed like a sapphire stone, having the form of a king's seat.

2 And he said to the man clothed in linen, Go in between the wheels, under the winged ones, and get your two hands full of burning coals from between the winged ones and send them in a shower over the town. And he went in before my eyes.

3 Now the winged ones were stationed on the right side of the house when the man went in; and the inner square was full of the cloud.

4 And the glory of the Lord went up from the winged ones and came to rest over the doorstep of the house; and the house was full of the cloud and the open square was full of the shining of the Lord's glory.

5 And the sound of the wings of the winged ones was clear even in the outer square, like the voice of the Ruler of all.

6 And when he gave orders to the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the winged ones, then he went in and took his place at the side of a wheel.

7 And stretching out his hand to the fire which was between the winged ones, he took some of it and went out.

8 And I saw the form of a man's hands among the winged ones under their wings.

9 And looking, I saw four wheels by the side of the winged ones, one wheel by the side of a winged one and another wheel by the side of another: and the wheels were like the colour of a beryl stone to the eye.

10 In form the four of them were all the same, they seemed like a wheel inside a wheel.

11 When they were moving, they went on their four sides without turning; they went after the head in the direction in which it was looking; they went without turning.

12 And the edges of the four wheels were full of eyes round about.

13 As for the wheels, they were named in my hearing, the circling wheels.

14 And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a winged one, and the second was the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

15 And the winged ones went up on high: this is the living being which I saw by the river Chebar.

16 And when the winged ones went, the wheels went by their side: and when their wings were lifted to take them up from the earth, the wheels were not turned from their side.

17 When they were at rest in their place, these were at rest; when they were lifted up, these went up with them: for the spirit of life was in them.

18 Then the glory of the Lord went out from the doorstep of the house, and came to rest over the winged ones.

19 And the winged ones, lifting up their wings, went up from the earth before my eyes, with the wheels by their side: and they came to rest at the east doorway of the Lord's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them on high.

20 This is the living being which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and it was clear to me that they were the winged ones.

21 Every one had four faces and Every one had four wings; and hands like a man's hands were under their wings.

22 As for the form of their faces, they were the faces whose form I saw by the river Chebar; when they went, every one of them went straight forward.

39. The Lord is called the God of Israel and the God of Jacob. This is apparent from the following:

Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said, “This is the blood of the covenant which Jehovah has made with you....” ...and they saw the God of Israel, under whose feet was as it were a work of sapphire stone, and it was like the essence of heaven.... (Exodus 24:8-10)

...the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking..., the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel. (Matthew 15:31)

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for He visited and brought deliverance to His people (Israel), when He raised up a horn of our salvation in the house of David.... (Luke 1:68-69)

I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that I, Jehovah, who have called you by your name, am the God of Israel. (Isaiah 45:3)

...O house of Jacob..., who swear by the name of Jehovah and...of the God of Israel.... For they are called from the holy city, and rely on the God of Israel, Jehovah of Hosts His name. (Isaiah 48:1-2)

...(Jacob) will see his children..., in his midst they will hallow My name, and hallow the Holy One of Jacob, and fear the God of Israel. (Isaiah 29:23)

...at the end of days...many people shall come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob, who will teach us about His ways, that we may walk in His paths.” (Isaiah 2:2-3, Micah 4:1-2)

...that all flesh may know that I am Jehovah, your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. (Isaiah 49:26)

...I, Jehovah, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. (Isaiah 60:16)

Give birth, O earth, in the presence of the Lord, in the presence of the God of Jacob.... (Psalms 114:7)

(David) swore to Jehovah, he vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: “I will not go into the shelter of my house...until I find a place for Jehovah, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.” ...we heard of it in Ephrathah (Bethlehem). (Psalms 132:2-3, 5-6)

Blessed be...the God of Israel.... The whole earth will be filled with His glory. (Psalms 72:18-19)

And so on elsewhere where the Lord is called the God of Israel, its Redeemer and Savior, as for example in Luke 1:47, Isaiah 45:15, 54:5, and Psalms 78:35.

In many other places, too, where He is called simply the God of Israel, as in Isaiah 17:6, 21:10, 17, 24:15, 29:23; Jeremiah 7:3, 9:15, 11:3, 13:12, 16:9, 19:3, 15, 23:2, 24:5, 25:15, 27, 29:4, 8, 21, 25, 30:2, 31:23, 32:14-15, 36, 33:4, 34:2, 13, 35:13, 17-19, 37:7, 38:17, 39:16, 42:9, 15, 18, 43:10, 44:2, 7, 11, 25, 48:1, 50:18, 51:33; Ezekiel 8:4, 9:3, 10:19-20, 11:22, 43:2, 44:2; Zephaniah 2:9; Psalms 41:13, 59:5, 68:8.
