Ezechiele 1:27

La Bibbia di Giovanni Diodati

Poi vidi come un color di rame scintillante, simile in vista a fuoco, indentro di quella sembianza di trono, d’ogn’intorno, dalla sembianza de’ lombi di quell’uomo in su; parimente, dalla sembianza dei suoi lombi in giù, vidi come un’apparenza di fuoco, intorno al quale vi era uno splendore.

Parallel Translations

La Nuova Diodati
Da ci che sembravano i suoi lombi, in su vidi pure come il colore di bronzo incandescente che sembrava come fuoco tuttintorno dentro di esso; e da ci che sembravano i suoi lombi in gi vidi qualcosa somigliante al fuoco e che emanava tuttintorno un grande splendore.

Riveduta Bibbia
Vidi pure come del rame terso, come del fuoco, che lo circondava d’ogn’intorno dalla sembianza dei suoi fianchi in su; e dalla sembianza dei suoi fianchi in giù vidi come del fuoco, come uno splendore tutto attorno a lui.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I saw as the colour of amber,.... That is, the man upon the throne looked like the colour of amber; of which

:-;

as the appearance of fire round about within it; which may denote the deity of Christ, or Christ as God, who is a consuming fire to his enemies; a fire enlightening and warming to his people; as a wall of fire protecting them; and as a pillar of fire guiding and directing them, as he did the Israelites in the wilderness; and who has such light and glory in him, as is incomprehensible to us; and therefore this fire appeared round about within, the colour of amber, and under his human nature, through which it broke forth:

from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire; it reached upwards and downwards, as well as all around him:

and it had brightness round about; the fire; which shone through the human nature, and was upon it, in virtue of its union to the Son of God; and through the Gospel, in which, as in a glass, the glory of the Lord is seen; and which will be brighter and brighter in the latter day; which may be signified by the appearance of his loins downward.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 1:27. The colour of amber — There are specimens of amber which are very pure and beautifully transparent. One which I now hold up to the light gives a most beautiful bright yellow colour. Such a splendid appearance had the august Being who sat upon this throne from the reins upward; but from thence downward he had the appearance of fire, burning with a clear and brilliant flame. For farther particulars Ezekiel 10:9.
