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 cuatro ruedas tenían el mismo aspecto, es decir, brillaban como el topacio y tenían la misma forma. Su estructura era tal que cada rueda parecía estar encajada dentro de la otra.
17 Las ruedas podían avanzar en las cuatro direcciones sin tener que volverse.
18 Las cuatro ruedas tenían grandes aros y estaban llenas de ojos por todas partes.
19 Cuando los seres vivientes avanzaban, las ruedas a su lado hacían lo mismo, y cuando se levantaban del suelo, también se levantaban las ruedas.
20 Los seres iban adonde el espíritu los impulsaba, y las ruedas se elevaban juntamente con ellos, porque el espíritu de los seres vivientes estaba en las ruedas.
