Ezekiel 10

Read the chapter

Chapter 10

A vision of the burning of the city. (Ezek 10:1-7) The Divine glory departing from the temple. (Ezek 10:8-22)

Verses 1-7 The fire being taken from between the wheels, under the cherubim, Ezek 1:13, seems to have signified the wrath of God to be executed upon Jerusalem. It intimated that the fire of Divine wrath, which kindles judgment upon a people, is just and holy; and in the great day, the earth, and all the works that are therein, will be burnt up.
