Ezekiel 1:28 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

The bow — A like appearance of Christ in a surrounding brightness, as of the rainbow you have, Revelation 4:3. Mercy, and truth, and both according to covenant are about the throne of Christ. Glory — It was not the full glory of God, but such as the prophet might bear. I fell — With deep humility and reverence.

Ezekiel 1:28

28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
