The living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.

EXPLANATION

Verse 14. Flashes. Hebrew Bazak. Bible.—Theodotion retains the original. His version seems to have been inserted in the Septuagint ( Calmet.) who omitted this verse, as seeming to contradict verse 9 and 12. Saint Jerome—Yet it only signifies that the motion was quick as lightning, though they did not alter their situation with respect to each other.
