Context of Ezekiel 10:7
5The sound of the wings of the cheruvim was heard as far as the outer court, as the voice of El Shaddai when He speaks. 6After He commanded the man clothed in linen saying: “Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cheruvim,” he went in and stood beside a wheel. The cheruv reached out his hand from between the cheruvim into the fire that was between the cheruvim and took some of it. He put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who took it and went out. 8The cheruvim appeared to have the form of a human hand under their wings. 9Then I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cheruvim, one wheel beside one cheruv, and another wheel beside another cheruv. The appearance of the wheels was like the sparkling of a beryl stone.
