Ezekiel 10:9 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 10:9

And when I looked, behold, the four wheels by the cherubim,
&c.] The churches by the ministers: of these "wheels", and why the churches are so called, and of their number "four", and their situation "by" the cherubim, (See Gill on Ezekiel 1:15); one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub:
a minister to a church; every church has its own pastor, elder, or overseer, by it, and over it: and the appearance of the wheels [was] as the colour of a beryl stone;
a precious stone of a sea green; (See Gill on Ezekiel 1:16). The Targum renders it in general, "a precious stone"; the Septuagint version, "a carbuncle"; and the Vulgate Latin version, "a chrysolite".

Ezekiel 10:9 In-Context

7 and a keruv put out his hand from between the k'ruvim into the fire between the k'ruvim, took some of it, and put it in the hands of the one clothed in linen, who took it and went out.

8 Now there appeared among the k'ruvim the form of a man's hand under their wings.

9 I looked and saw four wheels next to the k'ruvim, one wheel next to one keruv and another wheel next to another keruv: the wheels had the color of beryl.

10 Their shape was the same for all four, like a wheel inside a wheel.

11 When they moved, they could go in any of the four directions without turning as they moved; rather, wherever the head looked, they followed without turning as they moved.
