Ezequiel 10

1Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

Os capítulos 8 aos 11, apresentam graficamente a glória de Deus saindo do templo. Em 8.3, 4, a glória de Deus estava sobre a porta do norte. Logo se transladou à entrada ("soleira"; 9.3), logo à mão direita da casa (parte sul do templo; 10.3), à porta oriental (10.18, 19; 11.1), e finalmente ao monte ao oriente da cidade (11.23), provavelmente ao monte dos Olivos. devido aos pecados da nação, a glória de Deus se foi.

11When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.
