destroyed the men in the temple, and was now proceeding to destroy
the city, which lay south and west.
the cherubim . . . the man--There was perfect concert of action between
the cherubic representative of the angels and "the Man," to minister to
whom they "stood" there
(Eze 10:7).
cloud--emblem of God's displeasure; as the "glory" or "brightness"
(Eze 10:4)
typifies His majesty and clearness in judgment.
