ezekiel 10:11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.

ezekiel 10:11 When they moved, they went in [any of] their four directions without turning as they went; but they followed in the direction which they faced, without turning as they went.

11. (See on Eze 1:17).
turned not--without accomplishing their course (Isa 55:11) [GROTIUS]. Rather, "they moved straight on without turning" (so Eze 1:9). Having a face towards each of the four quarters, they needed not to turn around when changing their direction.
whither . . . head looked--that is, "whither the head" of the animal cherub-form, belonging to and directing each wheel, "looked," thither the wheel "followed." The wheels were not guided by some external adventitious impetus, but by some secret divine impulse of the cherubim themselves.

ezekiel 10:11 When they moved, they went in [any of] their four directions without turning as they went; but they followed in the direction which they faced, without turning as they went.
