Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 28:14

14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth: and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God: thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

I would rather keep the order of the words in Hebr. which the French also keep, thou art a Cherub, Anointed, a Protector, or one, who covereth for defence. For thy Wisdom, Power, and Excellency like a cherub, or Angel, for the Sacredness of thy Person, and Office, as the Anointed of God, for the exercise of thy Power and Office, as a Shield, as a Protector of the weak; thus thou art, or thinkest thy self to be, and pridest thy self herein.

I, whom thou forgettest, I have made thee so, set thee above others, this should have been matter of thanks and humility, not of pride, and Atheism. Thus the sarcasm is continued, and he is upbraided for his insolence.

Or thus, in the Holy Mountain a God thou hast been, so 'tis an Ironie. and suits the rest; or else, in pursuance of our version, thou wast advanced to Kingly Dignity, (which David calls a Mountain, Psa. 30.7. Ier. 51.25 Dan. 2.35.) a Sacred Office, and of Divine Institution, and Consecration, and thou hast in pride exalted thy self above me, as well as above men.

In proud, and stately manner.

Surrounded every way in thy Chambers, and Beds, and Clothes with stones, that sparkle like fire, thy Crown, thy Throne, thy Chariots, thy Umbrellas, or Canopies glistering, and dazling Beholders; as if thus also thou wouldest contend with God, who is clothed with light.
