[Ezekiel 9:1-11](../../../kjv/ezekiel/9/1-11) . The six men mentioned are angels, into whose hands the city is given. Angels are used in judgments past and future. (See [Matthew 13:41](../../../kjv/matthew/13/41) ; [Matthew 16:27](../../../kjv/matthew/16/27) ; [2 Thessalonians 1:7-12](../../../kjv/2-thessalonians/1/7-12) .) Angels are likewise prominently mentioned in the book of Revelation. There is a striking correspondency between this chapter and [Revelation 7:1-3](../../../kjv/revelation/7/1-3) . Those who sigh and weep constitute the remnant which have no sympathy with the abominations. They are marked for preservation. Thus a remnant was then kept. Well may we remember that now, in the professing church, in the midst of the apostasy, there is also a faithful remnant who sigh and cry and who have the special promise of the Lord [Revelation 3:10](../../../kjv/revelation/3/10) .
The word “mark” in the Hebrew is “Tav,” the last letter in the Hebrew alphabet. Its literal meaning is “cross.” This letter “T” was a cross in the older Hebrew script as well as in the Phoenician and Samaritan. The Egyptians also used a cross in their language, with them it was a sign of life. Ancient Jewish tradition gives the information that the blood sprinkled in Egypt on the doorpost [Exodus 12:23](../../../kjv/exodus/12/23) was in the form of a cross. All this is interesting. To this we may add that in [Genesis 4:15](../../../kjv/genesis/4/15) , the mark set upon Cain, an entirely different word is used.
Then the command was literally executed.
