In a vision Ezekiel saw god appear in front of him. He says that he was held captive by tee king when it happened. He says that he remembers 44 figures appearing. They had human faces and along with had a lion face, eagle face and an ox face each as well.
They also had two wings each. Below the wings, they had human hands but they had calf hooves for feet. They wore crowns on their head and emitted a powerful glow of light like that of burning coal. He says that when he saw these figures approach, he kneeled down his head and the voice of the almighty spoke to him.
