AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ezekiel 9:4 The LORD said to him, "Go through the midst of the city, throughout all of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh [in distress] and grieve over all the repulsive acts which are being committed in it." |
Bible Question: i am looking for the scripture where GODS people within a city are marked and all those unmarked are killed. Can anyone help me? |
Bible Answer: I can think of three places where people were marked and those that weren't were killed. First is the Passover in Exodus chapter 12 where all the Israelites where told to mark their house. That night the angel of death came down and any house no so marked the first born died. The next place would be Rahab in Joshua 2 where Rahab was told to mark her families house with a scarlet cord and everyone else in the city of Jericho was killed. And the last is 144,000 in the book of Revelation that are marked/sealed and various plagues and hoards are told not to touch them, but kill others around them. However I think what you are thinking of is Ezekiel 9:4-9:6 Ezekiel 9:4-6 (NASB) 4 The LORD said to him, "Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst." 5 But to the others He said in my hearing, "Go through the city after him and strike; do not let your eye have pity and do not spare. 6 "Utterly slay old men, young men, maidens, little children, and women, but do not touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall start from My sanctuary." So they started with the elders who were before the temple. |
