“And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity: mine hearing: Heb. mine ears”
Ezekiel 9:5 (KJV)
Commentary on Ezekiel 9:5
God commands the executioners: "Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity." After marking the righteous, judgment proceeds without mercy on the unmarked. The command "let not your eye spare" repeats divine statements from 7:4, 9, emphasizing unmixed wrath. This selective judgment demonstrates both God's justice (punishing the guilty) and His mercy (preserving the grieved remnant). The vision teaches that living among God's people doesn't guarantee safety—only genuine faith marked by grief over sin provides protection.
