Ezechiele 9:3 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 9:3

And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub,
whereupon he was
That is, the glorious God of Israel; or the glorious Shechinah, and divine Majesty, which dwelt between the cherubim over the mercy seat in the most holy place, removed from thence, as a token of his being about to depart from the temple, which in a short time would be destroyed. The Targum is,

``the glory of the God of Israel departed in the cherub on which he dwelt, in the house of the holy of holies;''
the cherubim removed with him, and were his chariot in which he rode; see ( Ezekiel 10:18 ) ( 11:22 ) ; to the threshold of the house;
of the holy of holies, as Jarchi interprets it; and so was nearer to the brasen altar, where the seven men stood, to give them their orders; of which an account follows: and he called to the man clothed with linen, which [had] the writer's
inkhorn by his side;
he, being the principal person, is called first; and his business being to preserve the Lord's people shows that this was the first care of God.

Ezechiele 9:3 In-Context

1 POI egli gridò ad alta voce, udente me, dicendo: Accostatevi voi, che avete commessione contro alla città, avendo ciascuno le sue armi da distruggere in mano.
2 Ed ecco sei uomini, che venivano di verso la porta alta, che riguarda verso il Settentrione, avendo ciascuno in mano le sue armi da dissipare; e nel mezzo di loro vi era un uomo vestito di panni lini, il quale avea un calamaio di scrivano in su i lombi; ed essi entrarono, e si fermarono presso all’altare di rame.
3 E la gloria dell’Iddio d’Israele si elevò d’in su i Cherubini, sopra i quali era; e trasse verso la soglia della Casa. E il Signore gridò all’uomo ch’era vestito di panni lini, che avea il calamaio di scrivano in su i lombi, e gli disse:
4 Passa per mezzo la città, per mezzo Gerusalemme, e fa’ un segno sopra la fronte degli uomini che gemono, e sospirano per tutte le abbominazioni che si commettono nel mezzo di lei.
5 Ed agli altri disse, udente me: Passate dietro a lui per la cittĂ , e percotete; il vostro occhio non perdoni, e non risparmiate.
