Contextual Overview
1 And he said to me, Son of Man, eat this volume, and go and speak to the children of Israel. 2 So he opened my mouth, and caused me to eat the volume. 3 thy mouth shall eat, and thy belly shall be filled with this volume that is given to thee. So I ate it; and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey. 4 And he said to me, Son of man, go thy way, and go in to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them. 5 For thou art not sent to a people of hard speech, but to the house of Israel; 6 neither to many nations of other speech and other tongues, nor of harsh language, whose words thou wouldest not understand: although if I had sent thee to such, they would have hearkened to thee. 7 But the house of Israel will not be willing to hearken to thee; for they will not hearken to me: for all the house of Israel are stubborn and hard-hearted. 8 And, behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and I will strengthen thy power against their power. 9 And it shall be continually stronger than a rock: be not afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their faces, because it is a provoking house. 10 And he said to me, Son of man, receive into thine heart all the words that I have spoken to thee, and hear them with thine ears.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
[I heard] also the noise of the wings of the living creatures,.... Which they clapped, when they uttered the preceding words;
:-;
that touched one another; or "kissed, a woman her sister" r; denoting their affection and agreement in the doxology or ascription of glory to God; see Ezekiel 1:9;
and the noise of the wheels over against them: the living creatures; for the wheels were by the living creatures, and went over against them, as they went, Ezekiel 1:15; ministers and churches join together in this doxology:
and a noise of a great rushing; which is repeated for the confirmation of the thing, and to express the greatness of the noise made by the living creatures and wheels, like that of thunder or an earthquake; it is said to be like the noise of great waters, Ezekiel 1:24.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
That touched - literally, touching. The living creatures in their flight raised their wings, so as to touch each other.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 3:13. A great rushing. — All the living creatures and the wheels being then in motion.
