Ezekiel 10:10

10:10 As for their appearance, all four of them looked the same, something like a wheel within a wheel. ¹ 

Ezekiel 1:16

1:16 The appearance of the wheels and their construction ²  was like gleaming jasper, ³  and all four wheels looked alike. Their structure was like a wheel within a wheel. ⁴ 

Ezekiel 10:6

10:6 When the Lord ⁵  commanded the man dressed in linen, “Take fire from within the wheelwork, from among the cherubim,” the man ⁶  went in and stood by one of the wheels. ⁷ 

[10:10]  ¹ tn Or “like a wheel at right angles to another wheel.” Some envision concentric wheels here, while others propose “a globe-like structure in which two wheels stand at right angles” (L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 1:33-34). See also 1:16.

[1:16]  ² tc This word is omitted from the LXX.

[1:16]  ³ tn Heb “Tarshish stone.” The meaning of this term is uncertain. The term has also been translated “topaz” (NEB); “beryl” (KJV, NASB, NRSV); or “chrysolite” (RSV, NIV).

[1:16]  ⁴ tn Or “like a wheel at right angles to another wheel.” Some envision concentric wheels here, while others propose “a globe-like structure in which two wheels stand at right angles” (L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 1:33-34). The description given in v. 17 favors the latter idea.

[10:6]  ³ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:6]  ⁴ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the man dressed in linen) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:6]  ⁵ tn Heb “the wheel.”
