Ezekiel 10:14
Compare all
12 And their whole body, with their back, their hands, their wings, and the wheels that the four had, were afull of eyes all around.  
13 As for the wheels, they were called in my1 hearing, “Wheel.”  
14 aEach one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, the second face the face of a man, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.  
15 And the cherubim were lifted up. This was athe living creature I saw by the River Chebar.  
16 aWhen the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also did not turn from beside them.  
17 aWhen1 the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still, and when2 one was lifted up, the other lifted itself up, for the spirit of the living creature was in them.

Ezekiel 10:14

The first - was the face of a cherub - In Ezekiel 1:10, this is called the "face of an ox;" here, the "face of a cherub:" hence, a cherub was in the likeness of an ox, at least, as to its head. kerub never occurs as a verb; and its meaning cannot be precisely ascertained. Parkhurst thinks the caph to be here the note of similitude; and then translates ke , "like," rab or rob , "the mighty one;" and, in consequence, makes the cherubim an emblem of the Holy Trinity. See his lengthy Dissertation under in his Hebrew and English Lexicon.
