“As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four. and their rings: or, and their strakes”
Ezekiel 1:18 (KJV)
Commentary on Ezekiel 1:18
"As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four." The wheels full of eyes represent comprehensive divine knowledge—nothing escapes God's sight. The adjective "dreadful" (Hebrew yare, יָרֵא) means inspiring awe and fear. God's omniscience is terrifying to the guilty but comforting to the faithful. The eyes symbolize God's providential oversight: He sees all, knows all, controls all. This guards against practical deism that acknowledges God's existence but denies His active involvement in history.
