God's Heavenly Chariot
Commentators explain that the phrase 'the chariot of the cherubim' is deeply symbolic. The cherubim themselves are seen as the heavenly chariot upon which the glorious presence of God rides, a concept echoed in passages like Psalm 18:10 and Ezekiel's vision of the 'mercavah' (chariot). This imagery emphasizes the majesty, mobility, and awesome glory of God enthroned above the ark.
