And when the cherubim went, the wheels went by them, &c.] Ministers being guides to the churches in doctrine, worship, devotion, and conversation; (see Gill on “<260119>Ezekiel 1:19”); and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them; ministers and churches go together; if the one remove, the other do also; they cannot long subsist without each other; and, generally speaking, as are the light, knowledge, zeal, affection, and devotion of the one, such are those of the other; (see Gill on “<260119>Ezekiel 1:19”).
