10:3 (The cherubim were standing on the south side 1 of the temple when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.)
10:18 Then the glory of the Lord moved away from the threshold of the temple and stopped above the cherubim.
11:22 Then the cherubim spread 3 their wings with their wheels alongside them while the glory of the God of Israel hovered above them.

2 tn The name (“El Shaddai”) has often been translated “God Almighty,” primarily because Jerome translated it omnipotens (“all powerful”) in the Latin Vulgate. There has been much debate over the meaning of the name. For discussion see W. F. Albright, “The Names Shaddai and Abram,” JBL 54 (1935): 173-210; R. Gordis, “The Biblical Root sdy-sd,” JTS 41 (1940): 34-43; and especially T. N. D. Mettinger, In Search of God, 69-72.
3 tn Heb “lifted.”
