以西結書 9:4 CUNPTS

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 9:1-11

The next section of the message most remarkably reveals the fact of the divine discrimination in judgment. The prophet was charged in the vision to cause those who had charge over the city to draw near, armed with weapons of destruction. In response, six men came from the way of the upper gate, and a seventh, clothed in linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side. The glory of the God of Israel had departed from the center of the Temple to the threshold of the house. These men were now charged... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 9:4

MARKED MEN!‘And the Lord said unto him: Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst therof.’ Ezekiel 9:4‘What makes a people great and keeps them so,’ says Milton somewhere, ‘is the presence of a religious life amongst them.’ And so the records of these prophets are better guides for ascertaining the causes of national decay than the so-called... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 9:3-4

‘And the glory of the God of Israel had gone up from the cherub, on which it was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s kit hanging at his side. And Yahweh said to him, “Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark (‘a taw’, in ancient Hebrew an X) on the foreheads of the men who sigh and who cry for all the abominations that are done in the midst of it.” ’ The movement of ‘the glory of God’ is also... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 9:1-11

Ezekiel 9. The Pitiless Slaughter of the Sinners.— The doom has been abundantly justified; now it comes, and in bloody form. In obedience to a ringing summons, seven angels come forth to execute it— six armed with deadly weapons, the seventh arrayed in priestly linen and with an inkhorn hanging at his side, ready to put the sign of the cross (the “ mark” in Ezekiel 9:4 is the letter taw, which in the old alphabet was a cross) upon the brows of the few who were to be spared in the coming... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 9:4

The Lord said, spake from the midst of that glory, Ezekiel 9:3. Unto him, the man clothed in linen, i.e. to Christ. Go through; pass through as men use to go who keep an even, steady pace. The midst of the city; the chief street of the city. Set a mark: it is too curious, and as useless, to inquire what mark this was. It is groundless to confine it to the sign of the cross, whatever some discourse of the antique form of the letter Thau. It is sufficient that, after the manner of man’s speaking,... read more

And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.THERE is in the minds of ungodly men an atheistical idea, that God “does not regard” the actions of men; and that, as to any interference in their concerns, “he has forsaken the earth.” This was a common sentiment... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 9:1-11

Chapter 9He cried also in my ear with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have the charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand ( Ezekiel 9:1 ).So he heard Him now crying. He's not ordering Ezekiel. Ezekiel is hearing God cry to these others, "Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand." He is calling now these angels of God who are to bring the judgment against the people.And,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 9:1-11

Ezekiel 9:2 . Behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate. These were the high and mighty angels of God, who as guardians had charge of the city. The Chaldean army were but the secondary executioners of the divine commission. One man among them was clothed with linen, like a priest of God. The Chaldaic reads, clothed with a vesture, or full robe. Revelation 1:13. A robe that reached down to his feet, a symbol of the Holy Spirit, who seals the saints of God. Ezekiel 9:3 .
