Revelation 4:6

Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal.  And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back.

·        In this all those must be washed that are admitted into the gracious presence of God (MH)

·        Living creatures – four animals – between the throne and the circle of the elders (as seems most probable), standing between God and the people (MH)

Exodus 24:10  and they saw the God of Israel.  And there was under His feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and it was like the very heavens in its clarity.

Ezekiel 1:5  Also from within it came the likeness of four living creatures.  And this was their appearance:  they had the likeness of a man.
