Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 1:25

25 And there was a voice from the firmament that was over their heads when they stood, and had let down their wings.

Or, for, so the Lat. two senses may be of these words in this verse. Either 1. These living Creatures thus let down their wings and ceased from acting, because they were commanded so to do by the voice from above the firmament, which they readily obey. Or, 2. That they stood, let down their wings, and hush't the noise, that the Prophet might hear what was spoken from above, the former comes nearest the sense of the Lat. the latter nearer to our English, and either may well enough suit the text and context.
