Ezequiel 1:20 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 1:20

Whithersoever the spirit was to go they went
That is, the Spirit of God; wherever that leads and directs, whether in the paths of faith or duty, they follow; they walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit; he guides their feet in the way of peace, and into all truth; and leads them in a right way to the land of uprightness: thither [was their] spirit to go;
their spirits or souls being regenerated by the spirit of God, are moved and actuated by him, and readily go where that directs: and the wheels were lifted up over against them;
that is, over against the living creatures; being by their sides going where they go, and being lifted up when they are: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels;
the same Spirit of God, which is a spirit of life, a quickening spirit, and a free spirit; which gives motion and liberty in religious exercises; that which is in the ministers of the Gospel is in the churches of God; there is but one Spirit, and ministers and members are actuated and influenced by it; see ( Ephesians 4:4 Ephesians 4:5 ) .

Ezequiel 1:20 In-Context

18 Estas rodas eram altas e formidáveis; e as quatro tinham as suas cambotas cheias de olhos ao redor.

19 E quando andavam os seres viventes, andavam as rodas ao lado deles; e quando os seres viventes se elevavam da terra, elevavam-se também as rodas.

20 Para onde o espírito queria ir, iam eles, mesmo para onde o espírito tinha de ir; e as rodas se elevavam ao lado deles; porque o espírito do ser vivente estava nas rodas.

21 Quando aqueles andavam, andavam estas; e quando aqueles paravam, paravam estas; e quando aqueles se elevavam da terra, elevavam-se também as rodas ao lado deles; porque o espírito do ser vivente estava nas rodas.

22 E por cima das cabeças dos seres viventes havia uma semelhança de firmamento, como o brilho de cristal terrível, estendido por cima, sobre a sua cabeça.
