SRB26 Och den första varelsen liknade ett lejon, och den andra varelsen liknade en ung tjur, och den tredje varelsen hade ett ansikte som en människa, och den fjärde varelsen liknade en flygande örn.

SKB Den första varelsen liknade ett lejon. Den andra en ung tjur. Den tredje hade ett ansikte som en människa. Den fjärde liknade en flygande örn. [Det är inte helt klart vad dessa fyra varelser är eller symboliserar. Eftersom de tillber vid Guds tron är de skapade. De verkar vara en kombination av keruberna i Hes 10 och seraferna i Jes 6, som också sjöng ”helig, helig, helig”. Dessa fyra varelser finns också med när de första sigillen i bokrullen öppnas, och säger då ”kom”, se kapitel 6. De fyra varelserna representerar också de fyra stora grupper som Gud skapade på jorden – fåglar, vilda djur, boskap och människor, se 1 Mos 1:20-28. Örnen är den främsta av fåglarna, lejonet de vilda djurens konung, osv. En tolkning är att allt skapat på jorden är tänkt att tillbe Gud. Det finns även en koppling till de fyra evangelierna och hur Jesus presenteras, en tolkning som var vanlig bland kyrkofäderna. Matteus presenterar Jesus som kung – lejonet från Juda stam. Markus presenterar Jesus som Herrens tjänare – oxen som drar. Lukas fokuserar på Jesu mänsklighet, vilket då kan representera den tredje varelsen som hade det mänskliga ansiktet. Till sist visar Johannes på Jesu gudomlighet som då representeras av örnen. Det finns även en koppling till fyra av de tolv stammarna (Juda, Ruben, Efraim och Dan) som var placerade närmast intill tabernaklet, se 4 Mos 2.]
