Yehezkiel 1:9
Konteks1:9 their wings touched each other; they did not turn as they moved, but went straight ahead. 1
Yehezkiel 10:14
Konteks10:14 Each of the cherubim 2 had four faces: The first was the face of a cherub, 3 the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.
[1:9] 1 tn Heb “They each went in the direction of one of his faces.”
[10:14] 2 tn Heb “each one”; the referent (the cherubim) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[10:14] 3 sn The living creature described here is thus slightly different from the one described in Ezek 1:10, where a bull’s face appeared instead of a cherub’s. Note that some English versions harmonize the two descriptions and read the same here as in 1:10 (cf. NAB, NLT “an ox”; TEV, CEV “a bull”). This may be justified based on v. 22, which states the creatures’ appearance was the same.
