Ezekiel 10:22 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 10:22

And the likeness of their faces [was] the same faces
Or their faces were like the same, which I saw by the river of Chebar;
which prove that the living creatures and the cherubim must be the same: their appearance and themselves;
were exactly the same there was no difference in their faces or in their bodies: they went everyone straight forward;
their motion as well as their form were alike; they kept one even course, looking right on, and their eyes right before them.

Ezekiel 10:22 In-Context

20 This [was] the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel at the {Kebar River}, and I knew that they [were] cherubim.
21 {Each one had four faces}, and [there were] four wings for each, and [the] likeness of {human hands} [was] under their wings.
22 And the likeness of their faces, they [were] the faces that I saw at the {Kebar River}; [thus was] their appearance, and they each went {straight ahead}.
