Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Ezekiel 10:1-22

3. The Coals of Fire on the City (Ch. 10).1And I saw, and, behold, on the expanse that was above the head of the cherubim,—as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne was seen [appeared] over them. 2And He spake unto the man clothed in linen, and said, Come hither between the wheels, hither under the cherub, and fill thy two hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter over 3the city. And he came before mine eyes. And the cherubim stood on the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 10:1-22

The prophet next described the process of judgment. First, a preliminary vision was granted to him. The man with the inkhorn who had passed through the midst of the city, setting his mark on the sighing and crying men, was commanded to pass in between the whirling wheels and gather coals of fire in his hand and scatter them over the city. Then appeared the glory of Jehovah over the threshold of the house, and the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard. Visions of the glory of God,... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 10:1

‘Then I looked and behold, on the flat plate that was over the head of the cherubim there appeared above them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.’ Here we are carried right back again to the first vision in chapter 1. The flat level plain of the colour of awesome ice borne by the cherubim, and the glorious, sparkling blue likeness to a throne above (Ezekiel 1:22; Ezekiel 1:26). But this time it is at Jerusalem. This is the first mention of the chariot... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 10:1-8

Ezekiel 10:1-Ruth : . The Burning of the City.— But the guilty city must be destroyed as well as the people: so the awful carnage is followed by a no less awful conflagration— prophetic of the fire, kindled later by Babylonian hands, which reduced the city to ashes ( 2 Kings 25:9). But this fire was kindled by supernatural hands which took it from among the flames that flashed and blazed between the strange creatures in the Divine chariot ( Ezekiel 1:13); and again ( cf. Ezekiel 9:3) the... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 10:1

Then, or And, which connecting this with the ninth chapter, will connote the time wherein he thus saw. I looked, in spirit or vision; and this vision is the same of Ezekiel 1:0., repeated, or very little differing from it, and with some particular design, which that of Ezekiel 1:0 did not express, viz. a design of leaving the temple and city desolate. In the firmament: see Ezekiel 1:22,Ezekiel 1:26. The cherubims; called living creatures Ezekiel 1:5, which see. A sapphire stone: see Ezekiel... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 10:1-8

(3.) THE SETTING FIRE TO JERUSALEM, WITH THE WITHDRAWAL FROM THE TEMPLE (Chap. 10)EXEGETICAL NOTES.—Ezekiel 10:1-8. The sealing of the remnant has proved the faithfulness of the Lord to His covenant; the conflagration of the city will prove His justice by the punishment of the violators of His covenant. But before the sentence is executed the prophet is again made specially cognisant of the truth that the heavens do rule—that not only was he commissioned by the God of Israel, but also that he... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 10:1-22

Ezekiel 10:1 . Behold, in the firmament there appeared as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of a throne. This is the vision that was seen by the river Chebar, but now the vision opens in the temple. Messiah on his throne passing the final sentence on the polluted sanctuary, in which his holiness disdained to dwell. The throne seated on the dense blue of the sapphire gem, named last in Ezekiel 1:26, is here put the first, the hour of judgment being at hand: his characters are... read more
