Some most ancient manuscripts containing this chapter in Hebrew language:

Ancient translations in Koine Greek:

Verse 4

Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub,
and stood over the threshold of the house;
and the house was filled with the cloud,
and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord's glory.[5]
  • "Cherub" (Hebrew: כרוב kə-rūḇ; plural: Cherubim): in Brown-Driver-Briggs is defined as "the living chariot of the theophanic God."[6] Gesenius describes it as "a being of a sublime and celestial nature."[7] Same as in Ezekiel 1:5-14.[8]

Verse 15

And the cherubims were lifted up.
This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.[9]

Verse 20

This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar;
' and I knew that they were the cherubims.[10]

Verse 22

And the likeness of their faces was the same as the faces which I had seen by the River Chebar,
their appearance and their persons.
They each went straight forward. (NKJV)[11]
  • "River Chebar": is generally identified as the "Kebar Canal", near Nippur in what is now Iraq. It was part of a complex network of irrigation and transport canals that also included the Shatt el-Nil, a silted up canal toward the east of Babylon.[12][13]
