Ezekiel 1:7
_ _ straight feet — that is, straight legs. Not protruding in any part as the legs of an ox, but straight like a man’s [Grotius]. Or, like solid pillars; not bending, as man’s, at the knee. They glided along, rather than walked. Their movements were all sure, right, and without effort [Kitto, Cyclopedia].
_ _ sole ... calf’s foot — Henderson hence supposes that “straight feet” implies that they did not project horizontally like men’s feet, but vertically as calves’ feet. The solid firmness of the round foot of a calf seems to be the point of comparison.
_ _ colour — the glittering appearance, indicating God’s purity. |
Ezekiel 1:7
Feet — Their thighs, legs and feet, were of a human shape. Straight — Not bowed to this or that part, which argues weakness. The sole — That which is properly the foot. A calf's — A divided hoof spake the cleanness of the creature. They — Their feet. |
- straight feet:

|
- the colour:
Ezekiel 1:13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance [was] like burning coals of fire, [and] like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
Psalms 104:4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
Daniel 10:6 His body also [was] like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
Revelation 1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
