Ezekiel 1:25 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 1:25

And there was a voice from the firmament that [was] over their
heads
Which was the voice of Christ upon the throne, above the firmament, over the heads of the living creatures; which directed them when and where to go, and what to do, and when and where to stop: when they stood, [and] had let down their wings;
either encouraging them to lift them up, and go on in their work, notwithstanding the sense they had of their own weakness and unworthiness; or, having done their work, calling them to himself in heaven.

Ezekiel 1:25 In-Context

23 Under the dome one set of wings was extended toward the others, with another set of wings covering their bodies.
24 When they moved I heard their wings - it was like the roar of a great waterfall, like the voice of The Strong God, like the noise of a battlefield. When they stopped, they folded their wings.
25 And then, as they stood with folded wings, there was a voice from above the dome over their heads.
26 Above the dome there was something that looked like a throne, sky-blue like a sapphire, with a humanlike figure towering above the throne.
27 From what I could see, from the waist up he looked like burnished bronze and from the waist down like a blazing fire. Brightness everywhere!
