Ezekiel 10:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 10:21

Every one had four faces apiece
Every one of the four living creatures, or cherubim, had four faces; which were the face of a man, of a lion, of an ox, and of an eagle, ( Ezekiel 1:10 ) ; and everyone four wings:
the Septuagint version reads eight wings; and the Syriac version "six"; so many in all indeed they had, (See Gill on Ezekiel 1:23); and the likeness of the hands of a man [was] under their wings;
(See Gill on Ezekiel 10:8).

Ezekiel 10:21 In-Context

19 While I watched, the winged creatures raised their wings and rose from the ground to leave, with their wheels beside them. They stopped at the entrance to the east gate of the temple, and the glory of Israel's God was up above them.
20 These were the same living creatures that I saw underneath Israel's God at the Chebar River, and I realized that they were winged creatures.
21 Each had four faces and four wings, with the form of a human hand under their wings.
22 The forms of their faces were the same faces that I saw at the Chebar River. Their appearance was also the same. All four of them moved straight ahead.
