Ezekiel 9
Concise Complete
A vision denoting the destruction of the inhabitants of
Jerusalem, and the departure of the symbol of the Divine presence.
Verses 1-4 It is a
great comfort to believers, that in the midst of destroyers and destructions,
there is a Mediator, a great High Priest, who has an interest in heaven, and in
whom saints on earth have an interest. The representation of the Divine glory
from above the ark, removed to the threshold, denoted that the Lord was about to
leave his mercy-seat, and to pronounce judgment on the people. The
distinguishing character of this remnant that is to be saved, is such as sigh
and cry to God in prayer, because of the abominations in Jerusalem. Those who
keep pure in times of general wickedness, God will keep safe in times of general
trouble and distress.
Verses 5-11 The
slaughter must begin at the sanctuary, that all may see and know that the Lord
hates sin most in those nearest to him. He who was appointed to protect,
reported the matter. Christ is faithful to the trust reposed in him. Is he
commanded by his Father to secure eternal life to the chosen remnant? He says,
Of all that thou hast given me, I have lost none. If others perish, and we are
saved, we must ascribe the difference wholly to the mercy of our God, for we too
have deserved wrath. Let us still continue to plead in behalf of others. But
where the Lord shows no mercy he does no injustice; he only recompenses men's
ways.
