Ezekiel's cherub in Eden

Biography

Ezekiel 28 moves from an oracle against the prince of Tyre to a lament over the king of Tyre using exalted Edenic and cherubic imagery. The figure is described as being in Eden and as an anointed guardian cherub before pride and corruption brought judgment. Interpreters have differed over whether the language is purely poetic description of the Tyrian ruler, evokes Adam, or also alludes typologically to a supernatural fall. The passage itself does not supply a personal name for a separate 'Ezekiel's cherub.'

Biblical Significance

This is better handled as a Bible-dictionary or interpretive concept than as an ordinary person record. AVWJ should avoid turning debated imagery into a biographical individual.
