Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

they went upon: Ezekiel 10:22, Ezekiel 1:17

whither: Ezekiel 1:20, Matthew 8:8-10

Reciprocal: Ezekiel 1:9 - they turned

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When they went, they went upon their four sides,.... Which four sides they had, by being made in the transverse way before mentioned; just as the New Jerusalem church state is said to be foursquare, Revelation 21:16; and this may denote the uniformity of Gospel churches in every state and condition, prosperous and adverse; and the constancy of their walk, conduct, and conversation:

they turned not as they went: neither to the right hand or the left, but went on in the path of faith and duty, keeping close to the word of God, and keeping up a conversation, discipline, and worship, according to it:

but to the place where the head looked they, followed it; meaning either the rulers, guides, and governors of churches, pastors and elders; whose faith and conversation are followed by the members: or rather Christ himself, the head of the church, who is to be followed whithersoever he goes or directs: unless by the head is meant the same as the spirit, Ezekiel 1:20; the Spirit of God, by whom the true members of Gospel churches are led, and after whom they walk. The Targum is,

"the place to which the first turned (or looked), after it they went;''

that is, the first of the wheels; and so may signify that the primitive churches are the pattern after which all the churches in after ages are to go;

they turned not as they went; this is repeated partly for the confirmation of it; and partly to excite attention to it, as being worthy of observation; Ezekiel 1:20- :.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The head - Either “the leading wheel which the others followed,†or more probably, the head of a cherub (one for all), the description passing from the wheels to the cherubim Ezekiel 10:12.
