He rode upon a cherub, and did fly Or, upon the cherubim, upon the angels who are so called, (Genesis 3:24,) and who are also termed God's chariots, (Psalms 68:17,) upon which he is said to sit and ride, which is not to be understood literally and grossly, but only figuratively, to denote God's using the ministry of angels in raising such storms and tempests as are here described, whether they be interpreted literally or figuratively, and especially in effecting many of those great events which take place in the administration of his providence; and particularly such as manifest his immediate interposition in the extraordinary judgments by which he punishes sinful nations, or in the remarkable deliverances which he works out for his people. Yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind As swiftly as the wind. He came to my rescue with all speed.
