Ezequiel 1:18 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 1:18

As for their rings, they were so high, that they were
dreadful
The circles and circumferences of them were "high": which may denote the visibility and extensiveness of the churches of Christ, especially in the latter day; when they shall be exalted above the mountains and hills, the kingdoms and states of this world; and there shall be such numerous additions to them, that the place will be too strait for the members of them to dwell in, ( Isaiah 2:2 ) ( 49:20 ) ; and "they were dreadful"; terrible, as the churches of Christ will be to their enemies to look at, when they shall be in their exalted state, ( Revelation 11:12 Revelation 11:13 ) ; or the words may be rendered, "and they had fear" ^F19; there was fear and reverence in them; the fear of God, and a reverential affection for him; they were waiting on him, and attending his worship with great reverence and godly fear: and their rings [were] full of eyes round about them four;
everyone of the four wheels, and each of their four semicircles, were full of eyes; expressive of the knowledge of the Gospel, and the truths of it, in church members; their continual looking to Christ for fresh supplies of grace and strength; and their constant watchfulness over each other.

Ezequiel 1:18 In-Context

16 Las ruedas brillaban como si fueran de berilo. Las cuatro ruedas se parecían y estaban hechas de la misma manera; dentro de cada rueda había otra rueda, que giraba en forma transversal.

17 Los seres podían avanzar de frente en cualquiera de las cuatro direcciones, sin girar mientras se movían.

18 Los aros de las cuatro ruedas eran altos y aterradores, y estaban cubiertos de ojos alrededor.

19 Cuando los seres vivientes se movían, las ruedas se movían con ellos. Cuando volaban hacia arriba, las ruedas también subían.

20 El espíritu de los seres vivientes estaba en las ruedas. Así que a donde fuera el espíritu, iban también las ruedas y los seres vivientes.
