Cherubim » The glory of God exhibited upon
The shape of an expanse, with a gleam like awe-inspiring crystal, was spread out over the heads of the living creatures.
The shape of a throne with the appearance of sapphire stone was above the expanse. There was a form with the appearance of a human on the throne high above. From what seemed to be His waist up, I saw a gleam like amber, with what looked like fire enclosing it all around. From what seemed to be His waist down, I also saw what looked like fire. There was a brilliant light all around Him. The appearance of the brilliant light all around was like that of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day. This was the appearance of the form of the Lord's glory. When I saw [it], I fell facedown and heard a voice speaking.
Then the glory of the Lord rose from above the cherub to the threshold of the temple. The temple was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the Lord’s glory.
Then the glory of the Lord moved away from the threshold of the temple and stood above the cherubim.
These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the Chebar Canal, and I recognized that they were cherubim.
