Ezekiel 10:6 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 10:6

And it came to pass, [that] when he had commanded the man
clothed with linen
After the orders were given by him that was upon the throne to the man thus described: saying, take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim;
as in ( Ezekiel 10:2 ) ; then he went in;
immediately, into the place where the wheels and cherubim were; even under the firmament of heaven, and the throne that was in it: and stood beside the wheels,
or "wheel"; to see what it was, as Kimchi thinks; or rather in order to go in between them, as he was bid to do, ( Ezekiel 10:2 ) .
