The description of the four living beings is nearly identical to the description of the cherubim in Eze 1, even to the symbols of the lion, ox, man, and eagle. Throughout Scripture, these cherubim are always in attendance at the throne and presence of God. (The Throne and the Lamb, pg. 16).
See my study notes for Ezekiel 1 and 2, for the connection of cherubim with the throne, presence, and glory of God throughout Scripture, posted at < http://www.alittleperspective.com/ezekiel-1-2/ >.
