Kabbalah zu Jechezkiel 1:6

These are the twelve faces and twelve wings of the heavenly beasts, as it is written (Ezekiel 1:8) "Each of the four had the face of a lion on the right" - this is the white of the eye. "Each of the four had the face of an ox on the left" - this is the red of the eye. "Each of them had the face of an eagle" - this is the green of the eye. And it is written, "Each had four faces... and four wings." - this all comes to twenty-four. And these wings are the eyelids, which are referred to as (Exodus 32:15) "they were inscribed on one side (zeh) and the other side (zeh)." [So too,] about the heavenly beasts it is said (Isaiah 6:3) "One (zeh) would call to the other (zeh), Holy! Holy! Holy! The Lord of Hosts! His presence fills the earth." Certainly, they are called "zeh and zeh", just like the two sides of the tablets of Torah, inscribed on one side and the other. These are inscribed tablets of stone, and that stone is the Foundation Stone from which the earth is formed. And this is the pupil of the eye, of which it is written (Zechariah 3:9) "A single stone with seven eyes." These are the seven skins of the eye, of which it is said (Psalms 119:164) "I praise you seven times a day." And this is the Holy Regency, as it is written, (Psalms 118:22) "The stone that the builders rejected will be the chief cornerstone." Who are these 'builders'? They are they masters of the Mishnah who built structures in the world, and the deciders of law (Halachah) who rejected Her in exile. [Therefore,] it is written of Her, "will be the chief cornerstone. For she is Moses' Halachah from Sinai, received by Moses. Although Her pupil was black, through it and from it will the Holy One light up the world, for He will illuminate Her.

The face of the Queen, these are the forty-nine facets of purity (through which the Torah can be interpreted), shining like a rose, white and red, drawing in from the right and from the left. White, from the clarity of humility; Red, from the shame of fear - yar'e boshet (an anagram of Bereshit, "In the beginning"). When [Her face] becomes golden-green, this is the Groom who has risen up to the sun, who is the Supernal Mother. From these three colours of the face emanate the seventy-two facets (of the divine name), whose numerical value equals that of Hesed (Loving-kindness), and which is comprised of two hundred and sixteen letters, the numerical value of which equals that of Gevurah (Might). This is the mystery [hinted at in the words] (Exodus 34:6) Vaya'avor Ado-nai, "And God passed before", which itself is the mystery of 'Ibbur (Impregnation or intercalation. Both Vaya'avor and 'Ibbur are comprised of the letters representing 72 and 216). He illuminates the Bride with four faces, as it is written, (Ezekiel 1:6) "Four faces [belonging] to [each] one." The middle column is the Vav [which models the additional month added to] the leap year, comprised of has thirteen months, and alluded to by the initials of Vaho Ani Vaho. Within this Vav is a pregnant woman, the mystery of the impregnation of Yesod (Foundation), containing a drop (of semen) by which impregnation takes place. This is Vav, for without such a drop no impregnation could occur. This is the mind containing wisdom.
