Ezekiel 10:18

Then the glory of the Lord departed from off the threshold of
the house
Whither he had removed from the cherub or the cherubim, between the mercy seat, ( Ezekiel 10:4 ) ; taking another step towards a general departure from the temple and city, of which this was another signal and warning: and stood over the cherubim:
not on the mercy seat from whence he came, for hither he returned not; but over the cherubim or living creatures seen in the vision, which were under the throne in the firmament of heaven; an emblem, as we have seen, of Gospel ministers: and this may denote the exaltation of Christ, who is the glory of the Lord, the brightness of his Father's glory, above sheen; his protection of them, and presence with them; for, let him move where he will, he will not depart from his faithful ministers; he will be with them to the end of the world.
