Ezekiel 9:6
| Utterly destroy old and young, maidens, children, and women: but upon whomsoever you shall see Thau, kill him not, and begin ye at my sanctuary. So they began at the ancient men, who were before the house.
| Sanctuary. Aquila, "temple," or people (Calmet) consecrated to my service, (Septuagint; Tirinus) particularly (Calmet) the twenty-five idolaters, the ancients and women, (Calmet) Ezechiel 8:16. --- Judgment beginneth at the house of God, (1 Peter 4:17.) and those (Haydock) who abuse holy things are justly cut off. (Worthington)
