19 and the cherubs lift up their wings, and are lifted up from the earth before mine eyes; in their going forth, the wheels also 'are' over-against them, and he standeth at the opening of the east gate of the house of Jehovah, and the honour of the God of Israel 'is' over them from above.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 10:19
Commentary on Ezekiel 10:8-22
(Read Ezekiel 10:8-22)
Ezekiel sees the working of Divine providence in the government of the lower world, and the affairs of it. When God is leaving a people in displeasure, angels above, and all events below, further his departure. The Spirit of life, the Spirit of God, directs all creatures, in heaven and on earth, so as to make them serve the Divine purpose. God removes by degrees from a provoking people; and, when ready to depart, would return to them, if they were a repenting, praying people. Let this warn sinners to seek the Lord while he may be found, and to call on him while he is near, and cause us all to walk humbly and watchfully with our God.
