Verse 8
And it came to pass, while they were slaying them ,.... That were in the city:
and I was left ; in the temple; and the only one that was left there, the rest were slain; for there were none marked in the temple, only in the city, Ezekiel 9:4 ;
that I fell upon my face ; as a supplicant, with great humility:
and cried, and said ; being greatly distressed with this awful providence:
ah, Lord God! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel ; the ten tribes had been carried captive before; there only remained the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin, and these were now threatened with an utter destruction:
in thy pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem ? shown in the destruction of men, both in the city and temple, by famine, pestilence, and sword.
