Ézéchiel 1:24

La Bible David Martin

Puis j'ouïs le bruit que faisaient leurs ailes quand ils marchaient, qui était comme le bruit des grosses eaux, et comme le bruit du Tout-Puissant, un bruit éclatant comme le bruit d'une armée; et quand ils s'arrêtaient, ils baissaient leurs ailes.

Darby's French Translation
Et j'entendis le bruit de leurs ailes quand ils volaient, comme le bruit de grandes eaux, comme la voix du Tout-puissant, un bruit tumultueux comme le bruit d'une arm�e. Quand ils s'arr�taient, ils abaissaient leurs ailes;

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when they went,.... In their ministrations, preaching the Gospel, and administering ordinances:

I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters: so the voice of Christ, which is no other than his Gospel preached by his ministers, is said to be as the sound of many waters, Revelation 1:15; which is heard a great way off, as the Gospel ministry is, even to the ends of the earth; thither the sound of the apostles' words reached,

Romans 10:18; and which, as they move with great force, yield a pleasant sound of and may denote both the energy of the word, and the delightfulness of it:

as the voice of the Almighty; the Gospel being the word of God, and not of man; which is quick and powerful, and full of majesty, and works effectually in them that believe:

the voice of speech; an articulate voice, a human one, pronounced by men, whom God employs to deliver out his mind and will:

as the noise of an host; the church being militant, to whom they minister; so that their voice, in their ministry, is sometimes reproving, convincing, confuting, contending, and disputing, as well as teaching and instructing. The Targum is,

"and the voice of their words, when they confess and bless the Lord, the living everlasting King, is as the voice of the host of angels on high:''

when they stood, they let down their wings; those two with which they flew, and with them covered their faces, or some part of their bodies, as ashamed of their own unworthiness and imperfections; or this may denote their having done their work, and finished their course.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The voice of the Almighty - Thunder.

The voice of speech - Rendered in Jeremiah 11:16 “a great tumult.” Some take it to describe the rushing of a storm.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 1:24. The noise of their wings — When the whirlwind drove the wheels, the wind rustling among the wings was like the noise of many waters; like a waterfall, or waters dashing continually against the rocks, or rushing down precipices.

As the voice of the Almighty — Like distant thunder; for this is termed the voice of God, Psalms 18:13; Exodus 9:23; Exodus 9:28-29; Exodus 20:18.
