Chariots

He rode upon a cherub and flew;
And He sped upon the wings of the wind.

He said,
“The Lord came from Sinai,

And dawned on them from Seir;

He shone forth from Mount Paran,

And He came from the midst of ten thousand holy ones;

At His right hand there was flashing lightning for them.

As they were going along and talking, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire and horses of fire which separated the two of them. And Elijah went up by a whirlwind to heaven.

So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

Now as I looked at the living beings, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living beings, for each of the four of them.

“A river of fire was flowing
And coming out from before Him;

Thousands upon thousands were attending Him,

And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him;
The court sat,
And the books were opened.

Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve

legions of angels?

Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands,

The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million; I heard the number of them.

As in sinai

Then He said, “Do not come near here; remove your sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.”

Also let the priests who come near to the Lord consecrate themselves, or else the Lord will break out against them.”
