Ezekiel 1:26
The Vision of the Divine ThroneThis part of Ezekiel’s vision is the most important. Everything before this prepared for the moment when God reveals Himself as the King above all. Here, God’s throne appears above the firmament, showing His authority over angels and all creation. This vision reminds us that God’s promises and warnings will truly happen because He rules over everything. The throne scene connects with other visions in the Bible, showing that Jesus, the Son of Man, is the one who rules with both power and mercy.v. 26: Above the shining crystal firmament, Ezekiel sees a throne. Upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it . This shows us that the Lord Jesus, even before coming to earth, was already ruling above the angels. The throne reminds us that God’s word comes with royal authority (Revelation 4:2 a). It is good news for humans that there is one like us on the throne, full of glory and compassion (John 5:27 b).
