Ezekiel 9 Prophecy: Type and Antitype   

 

The prophet Ezekiel wrote in chapter 9: 1-11 (emphasis mine):

The Six Men from Upper Gate of the North – II

 The Six Men from Upper Gate of the North – II

 

      “These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: a proud look,lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies, and one who sows discord among brethren.” King Solomon, Proverbs 6: 16-19, N.K.J.V.

 

Note again the six things our God of love, power, and wisdom hates, and the seventh rounding out the rest, renders them an abomination to Him! Aren’t these, and more as we shall see revealed to prophet Ezekiel, are what precisely characterizes the times in which “we live and move and have our being”— the antitypical national and global repetition of the past sad experiences of ancient Judah and Israel!?

     The book of Ezekiel is deeply instructive. E G. White, Fundamentals of Christian Education, p. 395. “Read the ninth chapter of Ezekiel.” Ibid, Testimonies, vol. 3, p. 267.

 

 One of the principal tenets of studying the Bible and its prophecies is: “Prophets are subject to prophets” (1 Cor. 14: 32), for the Bible never contradicts itself being really of one Author speaking through various penmen through different periods of time as present truth for each period till the close of time.
