10. There is inimitable grandeur in this verse. Under the Mosaic system
cherubim are frequently represented as the chariot of God. Angels are doubtless
our guards and ministering friends, and all their powers are enlisted to
expedite the rescue of the afflicted. Nature also yields all her agents to be
our helpers, and even the powers of the air are subservient: the wings ofthe wind. The Lord comes flying when mercy is his errand, but he lingers
long when sinners are being wooed to repent.
