Ezekiel 10:6

The Message

When God commanded the man dressed in linen, “Take fire from among the wheels, from between the cherubim,” he went in and stood beside a wheel. One of the cherubim reached into the fire, took some coals, and put them in the hands of the man dressed in linen. He took them and went out. Something that looked like a human hand could be seen under the wings of the cherubim.

God said to the man dressed in linen, “Enter the place of the wheels under the cherubim-angels.

A cloud filled the inside courtyard. Then the Glory of God ascended from the cherubim and moved to the threshold of the Temple. The cloud filled the Temple.

The wings of the cherubim were audible all the way to the outer court—the sound of the voice was like The Strong God in thunder.
