Yechezkel 10:18 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 10:18

Then the glory of the Lord departed from off the threshold of
the house
Whither he had removed from the cherub or the cherubim, between the mercy seat, ( Ezekiel 10:4 ) ; taking another step towards a general departure from the temple and city, of which this was another signal and warning: and stood over the cherubim:
not on the mercy seat from whence he came, for hither he returned not; but over the cherubim or living creatures seen in the vision, which were under the throne in the firmament of heaven; an emblem, as we have seen, of Gospel ministers: and this may denote the exaltation of Christ, who is the glory of the Lord, the brightness of his Father's glory, above sheen; his protection of them, and presence with them; for, let him move where he will, he will not depart from his faithful ministers; he will be with them to the end of the world.

Yechezkel 10:18 In-Context

16 And when the Keruvim went, the Ofanim went beside them: and when the Keruvim lifted up their kenafayim (wings) to mount up from ha’aretz, the Ofanim turned not away from beside them.
17 When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for the Ruach of the Chayah was in them.
18 Then the Kavod Hashem departed from off the threshold of the Beis, and stood over the Keruvim.
19 And the Keruvim lifted up their kenafayim (wings), and mounted up from ha’aretz before my eyes: when they went out, the Ofanim also were beside them, and every one stood at the petach sha’ar Beis Hashem hakadmoni (eastern gate of the Beis HaMikdash of Hashem); and the Kavod Elohei Yisroel was over them from above.
20 This is the Chayah that I saw under Elohei Yisroel by the Kevar River; and I knew that they were the Keruvim.
