Ezekiel 9 is the ninth chapter of the Book of Ezekiel in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet/ priest Ezekiel, and is one of the Books of the Prophets. [1] This chapter, sub-titled "The Wicked Are Slain" in the New King James Version, [2] contains God's "judgment on the idolaters" [3] who defiled the temple in Jerusalem. Ezekiel's vision of the defiled temple continues as far as Ezekiel 11:25. [4]
The original text was written in the Hebrew language. This chapter is divided into 11 verses.
Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Codex Cairensis (895), the Petersburg Codex of the Prophets (916), Aleppo Codex (10th century), Codex Leningradensis (1008). [5]
There is also a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint, made in the last few centuries BC. Extant ancient manuscripts of the Septuagint version include Codex Vaticanus (B; B; 4th century), Codex Alexandrinus (A; A; 5th century) and Codex Marchalianus (Q; Q; 6th century). [6] [a]
This "one man among them", clothed in linen like the "man clothed in linen" in Daniel 10:5, was an additional, seventh, person. [9] The high priest's garments are of linen, [10] but these linen garments "mark the man’s divine sanctity and eminence, not [his] priestly rank". [9]
