The Cherubim- • Zechariah looked ( #7200- consider, discern, make to enjoy) and saw these four chariots. • Eureka Vol. 1 pg. 76 'these four chariots are the 'cherubim' of glory, which constitute the Chariot of Yahweh. . .’…. .David styles them in I Chron. 28:18 as 'the chariot of the cherubim.' The spirit of Yahweh rested in the form of a cloud between and upon their wings. . …Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubim, shine forth."

  6. …thou that dwellest between the cherubim, Shine Forth!

  7. The Cherubim- • . .. Between the cherubim was the typical throne of Yahweh in Jerusalem.. Let the reader peruse these chapters (speaking of Ezekiel chapter 1 & 10) in connection with the Apocalypse chapter 4 & 5 and he will find that the cherubim are representative of the Spirit corporealized and manifested in the Saints, the Elohim of Israel-the One Eternal Spirit in multitudinous manifestation. • They represent the resurrected saints in the execution of the judgment written. J.Thomas

  8. 'Whithersoever the Spirit was to go - they went.' 'They ran and returned as a “flash of lightening”.

  10. Phanerosis pg 67 …'to us, then there is but one POWER, -'the Father,' out of whom are all, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Anointed, on account of whom are all, and we through Him.‘…. He is the foundation, the chief and precious cornerstone, of this New manifestation of the Father-Spirit…. The sons of power; spirits born of the Spirit, Israel's Elohim, or mighty ones, who were once Jews and Gentiles in unprofitable flesh; sinners under sentence of Death, but (now) justified by an intelligent and obedient faith. These are the Elohim of the 'Shi'maYisreail, (hear oh Israel) the hypostasis[substance, express image] of whom is the One Yahweh-the One Eternal Spirit multitudinously manifested in the Sons of Eternal Power…. J. Thomas , 1869

Why Four? ~Four are here because this is the military organization of Israel. • Judah– Lion -- East • Reuben – Man -- South • Ephraiam -- Ox--West • Dan—Eagle--North ~This is also identified with the four faces of the cherubim, of the Ark of the Covenant, and four living creatures in Ezekiels' vision as well as four living creatures in the Apocalypse.

  23. A brief overview of this section of Zechariah 6 v9-15 • We see he is told to accept the gifts offered by certain exiles from Babylon. • Invite them to witness the coronation of Joshua the High Priest, who obviously types the Lord Jesus. • He would be called the Branch (vs. 12), and would grow out of His place and build the Temple of Yahweh; • By this He will combine in himself the dual offices of King and Priest.

And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister to thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favor have I had mercy on thee.
