What does a Ophanim look like?
An Ophanim is a type of angel that is mentioned in the Bible, especially in the book of Ezekiel.
The word Ophanim means "wheels" in Hebrew, and it describes their appearance.
An Ophanim looks like a wheel intersecting another wheel, with rims full of eyes all around.
These angels are usually associated with the Cherubim, another class of angels, and they move along with them under the throne of God.
They are said to symbolize the wisdom, power, and sovereignty of God.
Some sources also call them Thrones, and they are considered to be one of the highest ranks of angels in the celestial hierarchy.
An ophanim are constantly praising God and guarding His throne.
They are also known as the "many-eyed ones" or the "galgalim" (spheres, whirlwinds).
The Ophanim, the wheels of fire
With eyes that see beyond the mire
They spin and soar in perfect sync
With Cherubim, they never blink
The Ophanim, the Thrones of God
With awe and reverence, they nod
They bear His glory and His might
They shine and sparkle in His light
The Ophanim, the watchers keen
With wisdom, power, and grace serene
They guard His throne and sing His praise
They fill the heavens with their blaze
