When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these lifted up themselves also: for the spirit of the living creature was in them.
When the creatures stopped, the wheels stopped. When they rose up, the wheels rose up too. The same spirit that moved through the living creatures was flowing through the wheels.
Everything moved together because they shared the same spirit, that's what real unity looks like.
