CHERUBIM

       There is no way to be sure that the cherubim described in the Bible are actually beings.  To the contrary they are described as having rather mechanical characteristics and are most likely devices.  They are duplicated in the Temple as ornamentation.  They are most often described as having a protective role as well as to facilitate aerial transportation.

CLOAKING CHERUBIM 
            GENESIS  3:24 
So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
          
 The cherubim, which appears to be some sort of device rather than a being, is placed to protect the Tree of life in the garden.  This device or devices is described as flashing and either rotating or having a constant 360-degree range of coverage. The cherubim  are mentioned throughout the Bible many times as having protective properties and performing various tasks.   Flaming = flashing.  

YHOVAH RIDES A CHERUB AND FLIES

            2 SAMUEL  22:11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
            Yhovah rides on a 'cherub' and flies on the edge of the wind.   This could indicate a smooth soaring-like flight as with a glider.  Wings = extreme edge

CHARIOT OF THE CHERUBIM
            1 CHRONICLES  28:18  And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the Cherubims, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
             Is this to be a representation of Yhovah’s flying vehicles?  

YHOVAH FLIES A CHERUB ON THE WIND
 
          PSALMS   18:10  And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
            Yhovah flies a cherub rapidly on the wings of the wind.  Second fly = to dart or fly rapidly.

UP FROM THE CHERUBIM 
           
            ISAIAH  9:3  And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer's inkhorn by his side
            The glory rises above the cherubim. 
  
A SAPPHIRE THRONE
           
EZEKIEL  10:1  Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a  throne.
            Ezekiel is describing an expanse on top of the four devices that is a structure like a gem in the form of a canopy.  

WHEELS AND GLOWING OBJECTS
           
EZEKIEL  10:2
  And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in my sight.
            A being clothed in white tells Ezekiel to go to the center of the devices.

WHEELS AND CHERUBIM
            
EZEKIEL  10:6  And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels. 
            There are glowing objects between the wheels.

MOVING DEVICES ON CHERUBIM
            EZEKIEL  10:7  And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.
            The indication the cherubim literally grabs a glowing object and literally hands it could be Ezekiel's interpretation of the movements of a mechanical device.  See next verse.

HAND-LIKE DEVICES ON CHERUBIM
             EZEKIEL  10:8
  And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man's hand under their wings.
            Form = shape
.   

ELDERS

A CELESTIAL COUNCIL AROUND THE THRONE
        
    REVELATIONS  4:4  And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.
            Elders = a Sanhedtrist, member of the ruling council.

MILLIONS OF ANGELS
            REVELATIONS  5:11  And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
            Ten thousand = myriads.  Thousands = one thousand.   See 
Psalms 68:17

MEN

A COPPER BEING
            ISAIAH  40:3  And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the\gate.
            Ezekiel encounters a man who appeared as copper colored metal.

A MAN APPEARS
           
ISAIAH  43:6  And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me.
            A being appears beside Ezekiel.

APPEARANCE OF A MAN
          
  DANIEL   8:15  And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
            A being that looked like a man appears before Daniel.

THE TRANSFIGURATION CLOUD
           
MARK  9:4  And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus. 
5  And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.  6  For he wist not what to say;  for they were sore afraid.  7  And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. 8  And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves. 
            This is known as the “Transfiguration”.  Jesus tells his apostles that some of them will see the realm of God before they die.  Jesus is praying and his appearance changes.  His clothes became pure white and gleaming.  Two men appear with Jesus and a cloud enveloped them with a brilliant haze and suddenly the two men disappear.

THE TRANSFIGURATION AND BRIGHT LIGHTS
   
         LUKE  9:29
 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.  30  And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:  31  Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.  32  But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.  33  And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.  
            The transfiguration is the account of an aerial visitation to Jesus by two beings that discuss the coming crucifixion.

two men  in white apparel
   
         ACTS  1:10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;  11  Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
            Two men who suddenly appeared stated that Jesus who they just saw ascending into the sky will return from the sky in the same way they just witnessed.

A MAN IN RADIANT CLOTHING
            ACTS  10:30  And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
            A man suddenly appears in radiant clothing.

SAINTS

TEN THOUSAND SAINTS
            DEUTERONOMY  33:2  And he said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a  fiery law for them.  
             In the phrase ' fiery law for them ', law for them was added. It should say from his right hand went a fire.  The saints may be the first mention of the army that Yahweh commands  Compare
Num. 10:11.

SERAPHIM

SERAPHIM 
    
        NUMBERS  21:6  And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.  Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.  And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
            Seraphim are unleashed on the nation.  Fiery serpents = seraphim.  


 SERAPHIM

           NUMBERS  8:15  Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
            Seraphim dwell in a great and terrible wilderness.  

GLOWING FLYING OBJECTS
   
         ISAIAH  6:2  Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
            A copper colored glowing object or creature with six wings is flying around the temple.  See
Revelations 4:7.

SERAPHIM FLY            
           
ISAIAH  6:6  Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
            The seraphim flies.  

FLYING SERAPHIM           
            ISAIAH  14:29 
Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
            Fiery and serpent = seraphim. 

FLYING SERAPHIM
   
         ISAIAH  30:6  The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon  the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
            Fiery and serpent = seraphim.  

SONS OF GOD

SONS OF GOD
           
JOB  2:1  Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the Lord.  2  And the Lord said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
            A repeat of verse
1:6.

SONS OF THE MIGHTY IN THE SKY
           
PSALMS  89:6 
For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?
            This verse literally says; Who in the sky ranks with Yhovah or resembles Yhovah among the sons of El the Almighty?

WATCHERS

DANIEL
GUARDIAN FROM THE SKY
             ISAIAH  4:13    I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and an holy one came down from heaven;
            A watcher comes down from the sky.             

           
ISAIAH 4:23  And whereas the king sawa watcherand an holy one comingdown from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down,and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grassof the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times passover him;
Nebuchadnezzaris seeing this in a vision.

OTHER

BRIGHT SHINING RIVER
   
         DANIEL  7:10  A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
            A beam of light shown from him, millions served him and hundreds of millions were in his presence.

A GOLDEN BEING 
  
         DANIEL  10:5  Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz: 
            A being appears dressed in linen and gold.  Girded = dressed. 


FLYING HORSES
            JOEL 2:4  The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run.  5  Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
Horses= swift.

STRANGE BEINGS ON STRANGE HORSES

   
         REVELATIONS  9:17  And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
            It is not clear whether these are actually horses or devices.
            
BEINGS THAT LIVE IN THE SKY
           
REVELATIONS  12:12 
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.           
            Those that already are in the sky are lucky because Satan knows his time is short and is in a rage.
