The presence of the cherubim, angelic beings associated with God's throne, emphasizes the holiness and majesty of God. The four wheels suggest mobility and the omnipresence of God, indicating that His divine presence is not confined to the temple or any single location. This vision underscores God's sovereignty and ability to execute judgment or deliverance anywhere.one wheel beside each cherub The individual wheels beside each cherub highlight the organized and purposeful nature of God's actions. Each wheel's placement signifies that the cherubim, as God's messengers, are ready to move at His command. This imagery can be connected to the idea of divine order and the readiness of God's servants to fulfill His will. The wheels' association with the cherubim also suggests a harmony between divine will and angelic action.And the wheels gleamed like a beryl stone Beryl, a precious stone, is often associated with beauty and value, reflecting the glory and splendor of God's presence. The gleaming wheels symbolize the divine light and purity that accompany God's actions. In biblical symbolism, light often represents truth and revelation, suggesting that God's movements are righteous and just. The description of the wheels as beryl may also connect to the high priest's breastplate in <a href="/exodus/28-20.htm">Exodus 28:20</a>, where beryl is one of the stones, symbolizing the priestly role of intercession and divine communication.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/e/ezekiel.htm">Ezekiel</a> A prophet and priest during the Babylonian exile, Ezekiel is the author of the book and the one receiving the vision. 2. <a href="/topical/c/cherubim.htm">Cherubim</a> Angelic beings associated with the presence and glory of God, often depicted as guardians of sacred spaces. 3. <a href="/topical/w/wheels.htm">Wheels</a> Part of the vision of God's chariot-throne, symbolizing divine mobility and the omnipresence of God. 4. <a href="/topical/b/beryl_stone.htm">Beryl Stone</a> A precious stone, often associated with beauty and radiance, symbolizing the glory and majesty of God. 5. <a href="/topical/v/vision_of_god's_glory.htm">Vision of God's Glory</a> The broader context of <a href="/bsb/ezekiel/10.htm">Ezekiel 10</a>, where God's glory departs from the temple, signifying judgment and the seriousness of Israel's sin.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/g/god's_sovereignty_and_omnipresence.htm">God's Sovereignty and Omnipresence</a> The wheels beside the cherubim symbolize God's ability to move and act anywhere, reminding us of His sovereignty over all creation. <a href="/topical/t/the_holiness_of_god.htm">The Holiness of God</a> The gleaming beryl stone reflects the purity and holiness of God, calling believers to live lives that reflect His holiness. <a href="/topical/j/judgment_and_mercy.htm">Judgment and Mercy</a> The departure of God's glory from the temple is a sobering reminder of the consequences of sin, yet it also points to the hope of restoration and mercy. <a href="/topical/t/the_role_of_angels.htm">The Role of Angels</a> The cherubim serve as a reminder of the spiritual realm and the role of angels in God's divine plan, encouraging us to be aware of spiritual realities. <a href="/topical/t/the_importance_of_worship.htm">The Importance of Worship</a> The vision calls us to worship God in spirit and truth, recognizing His majesty and glory in our daily lives.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_ezekiel_10.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Ezekiel 10</a> <a href="/q/what_are_ezekiel's_wheels.htm">What are Ezekiel's Wheels in biblical context?</a> <a href="/q/why_did_doeg_betray_david_to_king_saul.htm">What are the ophanim in the Bible?</a> <a href="/q/what_are_the_ophanim_in_the_bible.htm">What are the ophanim in the Bible?</a> <a href="/q/why_do_cherubim_have_four_faces.htm">In Ezekiel 10:14, why do the cherubim have four faces, seemingly inconsistent with other biblical angelic descriptions?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a> <a href="/commentaries/ezekiel/10-9.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>Then I looked וָאֶרְאֶ֗ה (wā·’er·’eh) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7200.htm">Strong's 7200: </a> To see and saw וְהִנֵּ֨ה (wə·hin·nêh) Conjunctive waw | Interjection <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2009.htm">Strong's 2009: </a> Lo!
