エゼキエル書 9:1-2 JCB

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Ezekiel 9:1-11

Ezekiel 9:1-11 . The six men mentioned are angels, into whose hands the city is given. Angels are used in judgments past and future. (See Matthew 13:41 ; Matthew 16:27 ; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-12 .) Angels are likewise prominently mentioned in the book of Revelation. There is a striking correspondency between this chapter and Revelation 7:1-3 . Those who sigh and weep constitute the remnant which have no sympathy with the abominations. They are marked for preservation. Thus a remnant was then... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 9:1-11

VISIONS OF IDOLATRY It is the general opinion that these chapters introduce a new stage of the prophecies, and that while those of the last lesson comprehended Judah and Israel, these refer more particularly to Jerusalem and the people of Judah under Zedekiah. The fuller story of this period was in Jeremiah. The prophet is seen in his own house by the Chebar, and the elders of Judah are before him for instruction (Ezekiel 8:1 ). “Elders” we understand to mean, some who are in captivity with... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Ezekiel 9:1-11

Chambers of Imagery Ezekiel 8:0 , Ezekiel 9:0 With the eighth chapter we begin a new series of prophecies occupying eleven or twelve chapters. Before the prophet commences what may be termed his moral ministry he always passes through an experience of ecstasy or rapture, in which he sees manifold and most perplexing visions. We can only guard ourselves from what would amount to a profanation of these visions by reminding ourselves constantly that we really have no power of literally... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 9:1

CONTENTS The Prophet is following up the subject of the former Chapter in this, with an account of divine judgments. The destruction of the ungodly, and the salvation of the righteous, are here solemnly related. Ezekiel 9:1 The Reader will keep in remembrance the glorious person who was showing Ezekiel this vision, in the former chapter, (Ezekiel 8:2 .) The same it is that here cried with a loud voice in the ears of the Prophet. The Lord speaks loud indeed, when he speaks in judgment. It should... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 9:2

I beseech the Reader, to pay the greatest attention to what is here said, and may God the Holy Ghost, be his Instructor. I should conceive, that by what is related of six persons, and one particularly distinguished among the rest, is meant seven in number; six angels, and one person yet more, eminent. And who could this be but the glory-man Christ Jesus? They were for destruction: but his office is mercy. The writer's ink-horn by his side, seems to define his character. Surely Jesus marked down... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 9:1-4

1-4 It is a great comfort to believers, that in the midst of destroyers and destructions, there is a Mediator, a great High Priest, who has an interest in heaven, and in whom saints on earth have an interest. The representation of the Divine glory from above the ark, removed to the threshold, denoted that the Lord was about to leave his mercy-seat, and to pronounce judgment on the people. The distinguishing character of this remnant that is to be saved, is such as sigh and cry to God in prayer,... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Ezekiel 9:1-11

The Lord's Judgment upon the Guilty. The wickedness of the people described in chapter 8 is now followed by its proper punishment at the hand of the Lord in full agreement with the certain fulfillment of all His threats upon the wicked. v. 1. He cried also in mine ears, with a loud voice, the Lord thus emphasizing the importance of His command, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city, the heavenly watchmen, the angels through whom the Lord intended to carry out His punishment, to... read more
