And the spirit will lift me up and bring me to the east gate of the house of Jehovah looking to the east: and behold, in the door of the gate, twenty and five men; and I shall see in the midst of them Jaazaniah, son of Azur, and Pelatiah, son of Benaiah, chiefs of the people. And he will say to say to me, Son of man, these the men purposing vanity and counseling evil counsel in this city read more. Saying, It not being near; build houses: this the pot, and we the flesh. For this, prophesy against them, prophesy, thou son of man. And the spirit of Jehovah will fall upon me, and he will say to me, Say, Thus said Jehovah; Thus ye said, O house of Israel: and the risings of your spirit, I knew it. Ye multiplied your wounded in this city, and ye filled its streets with the wounded. For this, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Your wounded which ye set in her midst, they the flesh, and this the pot: and I brought you forth from its midst. Ye feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, says the Lord Jehovah. And I brought you from its midst, and I gave you into the hand of strangers and I did judgment upon you. By the sword shall ye fall upon the bound of Israel; I will judge you and ye shall know that I am Jehovah. This shall not be to you for a pot, and ye shall not be in the midst of her for flesh; upon the bound of Israel will I judge you. And ye shall know That I am Jehovah: for in my laws ye went not, and my judgments ye did not; and according to the judgments of the nations round about you ye did. And it will be as I prophesied, and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, died. And I shall fall upon my face and cry with a great voice, and saying, Ah. Lord Jehovah, thou makest a completion with the remnant of Israel.

4. One of the 25 princes; ringleader of the scorners "devising mischief." Like Ananias (Ac 5:5) stricken dead; an earnest of the destruction of the rest, as Ezekiel foretold (Eze 11:1-13). The prophet fell on his face thereupon saying, "Ah! Lord God! wilt Thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?" The people regarded Pelatiah as a mainstay of the city. His name suggested hope, from paalat "to escape," or Yah pileet, "God delivers." Is that hope to be disappointed? asks Ezekiel; is his death a token that all, even the remnant, shall be destroyed?
