Then I noticed from the appearance of His loins and upward something like glowing metal that looked like fire all around within it, and from the appearance of His loins and downward I saw something like fire; and there was a radiance around Him.I have to admit, I'm having trouble piecing together what this is supposed to mean. I can read the words, but not sure how to turn them into a picture. I understand glowing metal, but what's it mean by fire all around within it? Is it semi-translucent, where the fire within is visible through? Or does he mean it's so hot it looks like it's on fire, or being heated by fire within?
And for the lower half, having legs like fire is just odd. Normally, you'd think of metal below and the fire above it, where the metal is used for a base to work on. But here it seems to be the opposite, the metal is being worked on fire without foundation. Is that representative of God and how He control the laws of nature?
