Ezekiel 1:24 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings. The noise of their wings - When the whirlwind drove the wheels, the wind rustling among the wings was like the noise of many waters; like a waterfall, or waters dashing continually against the rocks, or rushing down precipices.

As the voice of the Almighty - Like distant thunder; for this is termed the voice of God Psalms 18:13; Exodus 9:23, Exodus 9:28, Exodus 9:29; Exodus 20:18.
