Ezekiel10:14

Ver. 14. The face of a Cherub] i. e. Humana quidem, ſed ſplendidiſſima, ſaith Junius: facies pueri alati, ſaith another. There are that tell us that in the Syriack tongue the word Cherub is taken from a word which ſignifieth drawing the plough, which is the bullocks proper labour. We muſt beleeve therefore, ſay they, that Cherub ſignifieth properly the figure of a bullock: under which hieroglyphically was repreſented an Angel. The laborious Preachers face ſhall once ſhine as an Angels.
