The vision of the cherubim Then the cherubim rose upward The term "cherubim" refers to a class of angelic beings often associated with the presence and glory of God. In Hebrew, "cherubim" (כְּרוּבִים) is the plural form of "cherub" (כְּרוּב), which signifies beings of great power and majesty. In the context of Ezekiel, the cherubim are depicted as part of God's divine chariot, symbolizing His mobility and sovereignty. The phrase "rose upward" indicates a movement towards heaven, suggesting an elevation of divine presence and authority. This upward movement can be seen as a metaphor for spiritual ascension and the transcendence of God's glory above earthly realms.
