Ezequiel 9:5 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 9:5

And, to the others he said in mine hearing
To the other six men that had the slaughter weapons in their hands: go ye after him through the city;
that is, after the man clothed with linen; for he was sent out first to take care of the righteous, and preserve them; and the rest were not suffered to stir till he was gone; and then they are bid to go after him. The Syriac version is,

``to them that were with him he said to them before me, go through the city after me;''
as if these were the words of the man clothed with linen to the other six; and so the Arabic version; of it the other is the true reading, and gives the right sense, as the following words show: and smite;
the inhabitants of the city: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity;
not that the Chaldeans were inclined to mercy and pity, for they were a cruel and barbarous people; but this is said to show the resentment of God against the sins of the Jews; and that it was his will they should act the severe part they did.

Ezequiel 9:5 In-Context

3 Y la gloria del Dios de Israel se alzó de sobre el querubín, sobre el cual había estado, al umbral de la Casa; y llamó al varón vestido de lienzos, que tenía a su cintura el tintero de escribano.
4 Y le dijo el SEÑOR: Pasa por en medio de la ciudad, por en medio de Jerusalén, y pon una señal en la frente a los varones que gimen y que claman a causa de todas las abominaciones que se hacen en medio de ella.
5 Y a los otros dijo a mis oídos: Pasad por la ciudad en pos de él, y herid; no perdone vuestro ojo, ni tengáis misericordia.
6 Matad viejos, mozos y vírgenes, niños y mujeres, hasta que no quede ninguno; mas a todo aquel sobre el cual hubiere señal, no llegaréis; y habéis de comenzar desde mi Santuario. Comenzaron, pues, desde los varones ancianos que estaban delante del Templo.
7 Y les dijo: Contaminad la casa, y llenad los atrios de muertos; salid. Y salieron, e hirieron en la ciudad.
