Ezechiele 1:27

27 Poi vidi come un color di rame scintillante, simile in vista a fuoco, indentro di quella sembianza di trono, d’ogn’intorno, dalla sembianza de’ lombi di quell’uomo in su; parimente, dalla sembianza dei suoi lombi in giù, vidi come un’apparenza di fuoco, intorno al quale vi era uno splendore.

Ezechiele 1:27 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 1:27

And I saw as the colour of amber
That is, the man upon the throne looked like the colour of amber; of which (See Gill on Ezekiel 1:4); as the appearance of fire round about within it;
which may denote the deity of Christ, or Christ as God, who is a consuming fire to his enemies; a fire enlightening and warming to his people; as a wall of fire protecting them; and as a pillar of fire guiding and directing them, as he did the Israelites in the wilderness; and who has such light and glory in him, as is incomprehensible to us; and therefore this fire appeared round about within, the colour of amber, and under his human nature, through which it broke forth: from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance
of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire;
it reached upwards and downwards, as well as all around him: and it had brightness round about;
the fire; which shone through the human nature, and was upon it, in virtue of its union to the Son of God; and through the Gospel, in which, as in a glass, the glory of the Lord is seen; and which will be brighter and brighter in the latter day; which may be signified by the appearance of his loins downward.

Ezechiele 1:27 In-Context

25 e quando si fermavano, e bassavano le loro ali, vi era una voce, che veniva d’in su la distesa, ch’era sopra le lor teste.

26 E di sopra alla distesa, ch’era sopra le lor teste, vi era la sembianza di un trono, simile in vista ad una pietra di zaffiro, e in su la sembianza del trono vi era una sembianza come della figura di un uomo che sedeva sopra esso.

27 Poi vidi come un color di rame scintillante, simile in vista a fuoco, indentro di quella sembianza di trono, d’ogn’intorno, dalla sembianza de’ lombi di quell’uomo in su; parimente, dalla sembianza dei suoi lombi in giù, vidi come un’apparenza di fuoco, intorno al quale vi era uno splendore.

28 L’aspetto di quello splendore d’ogn’intorno era simile all’aspetto dell’arco, che è nella nuvola in giorno di pioggia. Questo fu l’aspetto della somiglianza della gloria del Signore; la quale come io ebbi veduta, caddi sopra la mia faccia, e udii la voce d’uno che parlava.
