ezekiel 1:11 Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

ezekiel 1:11 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above; each had two touching another [being], and two covering their bodies.

11. The tips of the two outstretched wings reached to one another, while the other two, in token of humble awe, formed a veil for the lower parts of the body.
stretched upward--rather, "were parted from above" (compare Margin; see on Isa 6:2). The joining together of their wings above implies that, though the movements of Providence on earth may seem conflicting and confused, yet if one lift up his eyes to heaven, he will see that they admirably conspire towards the one end at last.

ezekiel 1:11 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above; each had two touching another [being], and two covering their bodies.
