Context of Ezekiel 10:5

3The angels were standing on the south side of the temple as the person went. A cloud filled the inner courtyard. 4The Lord’s glory rose from the angels to the entrance of the temple, the cloud filled the temple, and the brightness of the Lord’s glory filled the courtyard. The sound of the angels’ wings was heard as far as the outer courtyard. It was like the sound of the Almighty God when he speaks. 6After the Lord had commanded the person dressed in linen to take burning coals from between the wheels beside the angels, the person went in and stood beside one of the wheels. 7One of the angels reached into the fire that was between the angels and took out some coals. This angel put them in the hands of the person dressed in linen. The person took them and left.
