2 And He spoke to the man clothed in linen and said , "Enter between the whirling wheels under the cherubim and fill your hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim and scatter them over the city ." And he entered in my sight .

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 10:2

Commentary on Ezekiel 10:1-7

(Read Ezekiel 10:1-7)

The fire being taken from between the wheels, under the cherubim, 13, seems to have signified the wrath of God to be executed upon Jerusalem. It intimated that the fire of Divine wrath, which kindles judgment upon a people, is just and holy; and in the great day, the earth, and all the works that are therein, will be burnt up.
