Ezekiel1:27

Ver. 27. And I ſaw as the colour of amber] See ver. 4. Heb. chaſhmal, which being read backward (as the Cabbaliſts obſerve) is Lammaſhach or Lammaſhiach, i. e. Meſſias.

As the appearance of fire] Chriſt is very terrible in his executions: and even our God (as well as the Jews God) is a conſuming fire, Heb. 12. ult. See Exod. 23.20.

From the appearance of his loyns even upward] This may well be underſtood of Chriſts Divinity; as the parts downward, of his Humanity, partaking of the ſame moſt reſplendent glory, by virtue of the hypoſtatical union, and having partner-agency with the Godhead, according to its meaſure, in the works of redemption and mediation.
