Ezequiel 9:8 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 9:8

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.

Ezequiel 9:8 In-Context

6 velhos, rapazes e moças, mulheres e crianças. Mas não toquem em ninguém que tenha o sinal. Comecem pelo meu santuário”. Então eles começaram com as autoridades que estavam na frente do templo.
7 E ele lhes disse: “Contaminem o templo e encham de mortos os pátios. Podem ir!” Eles saíram e começaram a matança na cidade toda.
8 Enquanto isso eu fiquei sozinho. Então prostrei-me com o rosto em terra, clamando: “Ah! Soberano SENHOR! Vais destruir todo o remanescente de Israel, lançando a tua ira sobre Jerusalém?”
9 Ele me respondeu: “A iniquidade da nação de Israel e de Judá é enorme; a terra está cheia de sangue derramado e a cidade está cheia de injustiça. Eles dizem: ‘O SENHOR abandonou o país; o SENHOR não nos vê’.
10 Então eu, de minha parte, não olharei para eles com piedade nem os pouparei, mas farei cair sobre a sua cabeça o que eles têm feito”.
