Ezekiel 10:7 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

One cherub; one of the four. Stretched forth his hand; which was under his wing, as Ezekiel 1:8, which see. From between the cherubims; this that reached the fire to Christ stood among the cherubims, and putting forth his hand, or exerting his strength and power, serveth Christ, our Lord and his. Unto the fire: see Ezekiel 10:2, and Ezekiel 1:13. Took thereof; as a servant that reacheth what his master would have and use. The hands; both hands, for it is in the plural number. Who took it; received it of the angel, as one who might employ it when he would. Went out, from amidst the angels, and out of the temple; or from the threshold, where all this vision appeared as on its stage; and he goes into the city to prepare all, that nothing be done too soon, or too late.

Ezekiel 10:7

7 And one cherub stretched forthc his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.
