Ezekiel 1:12
_ _ The same idea as in Ezekiel 1:9. The repetition is because we men are so hard to be brought to acknowledge the wisdom of God’s doings; they seem tortuous and confused to us, but they are all tending steadily to one aim.
_ _ the spirit — the secret impulse whereby God moves His angels to the end designed. They do not turn back or aside till they have fulfilled the office assigned them. |
Ezekiel 1:12
Straight — Which way soever they went, each living creature had one face looking straight forward. The spirit — The will, command, and breathing of the Spirit of God, both gave and guided their motions. Was to go — Going is attributed here to the Spirit of God, by allusion, for he who is in every place cannot properly be said to go from or to any place. Turned not — They looked not back, they turned not out of the way, they gave not over, 'till they had compleated their course. |

Ezekiel 1:9 Their wings [were] joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
Ezekiel 1:17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: [and] they turned not when they went.
Ezekiel 10:22 And the likeness of their faces [was] the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one straight forward.
|
- whither:
Ezekiel 1:20-21 Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither [was their] spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels. ... When those went, [these] went; and when those stood, [these] stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
Hebrews 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
