God’s throne

Eze 1:26–28

1:26 God’s throne

26 Above the dome over their heads was what looked like a sapphire stone that had been made into a throne, and on the thing like a throne was something that looked like a man.[ref] 27 I saw a figure that appeared to have glowing metal with fire in it from his hips upwards, and looking downwards from his hips, I saw the appearance of fire and brightness all around.[ref] 28 The bright light surrounding the throne looked like a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day—it was the appearance of the likeness of Yahweh’s splendour. When I saw it, I quickly knelt down and bowed my head to the ground, and I heard a voice speaking.
