에스겔 9:9 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 9:5-11

In these verses we have, I. A command given to the destroyers to do execution according to their commission. They stood by the brazen altar, waiting for orders; and orders are here given them to cut off and destroy all that were either guilty of, or accessory to, the abominations of Jerusalem, and that did not sigh and cry for them. Note, When God has gathered his wheat into his garner nothing remains but to burn up the chaff, Matt. 3:12. 1. They are ordered to destroy all, (1.) Without... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 9:9

Then he said unto me ,.... In order to satisfy the prophet, and make him easy, and show the equity and justice of the divine proceedings: the iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great ; it cannot be well conceived or expressed how great it is; it abounded and superabounded: this is the answer in general, but in particular it follows: and the land is full of blood ; of murders, as the Targum interprets it; of shedding of innocent blood; and even of all atrocious... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 9:9

For they say, The Lords hath forsaken the earth - הארץ את eth haarets , "this land." He has no more place in Israel; he has quite abandoned it; he neither sees nor cares, and he can be no longer the object of worship to any man in Israel. This seems to be the meaning; and God highly resents it, because it was bringing him on a level with idols and provincial deities, who had, according to supposition, regency only in some one place. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 9:9

Verse 9 Here God so answers his Prophet, that he restrains too much fervor, and at the same time asserts his own justice — for the Prophet might be impelled this way and that — he might even doubt whether God would be true to his word. God might also shake his confidence in another manner, as by raging too much against the innocent; since therefore he might be agitated amidst those waves of trial, what God now does ought to set him at rest. Therefore, as I have already said, he mitigates the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 9:8-10

The intercession of the prophet and the answer of the Lord. "And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left," etc. This intercession helps us to understand why the Lord showed to Ezekiel the secret abominations of the people, and called upon him to consider them ( Ezekiel 8:7-12 ). In dealing with that vision, we suggested that he was called upon to consider it in order that he might be qualified to estimate correctly the righteousness of God's treatment of the wicked.... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 9:8-11

Human intercession. In every age good men have felt an internal constraint to intercede for the guilty. Love to God always produces love to men. I. INTERCESSION FOR THE GUILTY IS PRAISEWORTHY . Ezekiel felt that, though surrounded by the slain, his own life had been spared. A proper sense of God's compassion to us awakens similar compassion for others. It is a noble sentiment, and God does not discourage it. It sheds a blessing in the breast of him who cherishes it.... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 9:9

Then said he unto me. The answer holds out but little comfort. The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah (we note the coupling of the names though Judah only was the immediate subject of the vision, as if his prayer had gone up for the whole body of the twelve tribes) was immeasurably great. Not idolatry only, but its natural fruits, bloodshed and oppression, had eaten into the life of the nation (comp. Ezekiel 7:11 , Ezekiel 7:12 ; Ezekiel 8:17 ; Ezekiel 22:25 ). And these... read more

Joseph Benson

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 9:9-10

Ezekiel 9:9-10. Then said he, The iniquity of the house of Israel, &c., is exceeding great Here we have God’s denial of the prophet’s request for a mitigation of the judgment, and the justification of himself in that denial. 1st, Nothing could be said in extenuation of their guilt. God was as willing to show mercy as the prophet could desire, but here the case would not admit of it: it was such that mercy could not be granted without injuring justice; and it was not fit that one... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 9:1-11

Execution of the sinners (9:1-11)God’s punishment of Jerusalem was illustrated by a vision in which God sent his executioners to carry out his work of judgment on the sinful people. First, however, he sent a special servant to put a mark on those who opposed the city’s wickedness, so that they might be preserved through the coming bloodshed (9:1-4). The first place where the judgment fell was the temple, where the nation’s leaders had led the people astray with their wickedness and idolatry.... read more
