10:1 我觀看，見基路伯頭上的穹蒼之中，顯出藍寶石的形狀，彷彿寶座的形像。
10:2 主對那穿細麻衣的人說：「你進去，在旋轉的輪內基路伯以下，從基路伯中間將火炭取滿兩手，撒在城上。」我就見他進去。
10:3 那人進去的時候，基路伯站在殿的右邊，雲彩充滿了內院。
10:4 耶和華的榮耀從基路伯那裡上升，停在門檻以上；殿內滿了雲彩，院宇也被耶和華榮耀的光輝充滿。
10:5 基路伯翅膀的響聲聽到外院，好像全能上帝說話的聲音。
Then I looked, and behold, on the expanse
that was over the heads of the cherubim there appeared above them something
like a sapphire, in appearance like a throne.
And he said to the man clothed in linen, “Go in among the whirling
wheels underneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with burning coals from between
the cherubim, and scatter them over the city.”
And he went in before my eyes. Now the cherubim were standing on the
south side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner
court. And the glory of the Lord went up
from the cherub to the threshold of the house, and the house was filled with
the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the
Lord. And the sound of the wings of the
cherubim was heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty
when he speaks.

以西結可能因為到了聖殿才意識到這四個活物就是「基路伯」。而有基路伯的地方，就有上帝的榮耀，因為這榮耀就是上帝本身的顯現，也是上帝同在的表徵。其實上帝的榮耀是充滿全地，只是人沒有專心在上帝身上，有加上人的罪性，以至於眼睛就看不見上帝的榮耀。
所以，人必須要被基督拯救，才能有正確的眼光可以看見上帝的榮耀，是充滿在每個受造物當中，感受到所有受造之物都是上帝奇妙的傑作、奇妙的創造，發出從內心產生的讚嘆！
願主讓我們看見上帝的榮耀，進而知道順服與敬畏，如此我們才會真正蒙福，才會知道我們是活在上帝的榮耀之中，也只有上帝的榮耀藉我們顯出的時候，我們才能榮耀上帝！
