Eze 1:15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold
one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four
faces.
As I looked at these beings, I saw four wheels touching the
ground beside them, one wheel belonging to each. (NLT)
Eze 1:16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
The beryl stone is mentioned as in the appearance of the New Jerusalem, a
transparent city of God's making for his Saints.
Rev 21:19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with
all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second,
sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
Rev 21:20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.

One person referred to the book of
Isaiah as the picture of a wheel within a wheel. The Bible has 66 books and
within it Isaiah has 66 chapters. Interesting facts but it is not a correct
interpretation of this verse. Others say it looks forward to jets or other
mechanical war machines, I do not see that because these were living creatures
with four faces each, with the spirit of God.
Eze 1:17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went.
The four of them went on their four sides (one wheel for
each?) : and they, the wheels did not turn when they went.
Eze 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.
Eze 1:19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
Eze 1:20 Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
Eze 1:21 When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
The spirit of the living
creatures was in the wheels; the same wisdom, power, and holiness of God, that
guide and govern the angels, by them order all events in this lower world. The
wheel had four faces, denoting that the providence of God exerts itself in all
parts. Look every way upon the wheel of providence, it has a face toward you.
Their appearance and work were as a wheel in the middle of a wheel. The
disposals of Providence seem to us dark, perplexed, and unaccountable, yet are
all wisely ordered for the best. The motion of these wheels was steady, regular,
and constant. They went as the Spirit directed, therefore returned not. We
should not have to undo that by repentance which we have done amiss, if we
followed the guidance of the Spirit. The rings, or rims of the wheels were so
vast, that when put in motion the prophet was afraid to look upon them. The
consideration of the height and depth of God's counsel should awe us. They were
full of eyes round about. The motions of Providence are all directed by infinite
Wisdom. All events are determined by the eyes of the Lord, which are in every
place beholding the evil and the good; for there is no such thing as chance or
fortune, (Matthew
Henry)
