Ezekiel 24:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 24:6

4 Gather pieces of meat in it,
Every good piece,
The thigh and the shoulder.
Fill it with choice¹ cuts;

5 Take the choice of the flock.
Also pile fuel bones under it,
Make it boil well,
And let the cuts simmer in it.”

6 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:
“Woe to ^athe bloody city,
To the pot whose scum is in it,
And whose scum is not gone from it!
Bring it out piece by piece,
On which no ^blot has fallen.

7 For her blood is in her midst;
She set it on top of a rock;
^aShe did not pour it on the ground,
To cover it with dust.

8 That it may raise up fury and take vengeance,
^aI have set her blood on top of a rock,
That it may not be covered.”

9 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:
^a“Woe to the bloody city!
I too will make the pyre great.

10 Heap on the wood,
Kindle the fire;
Cook the meat well,
Mix in the spices,
And let the¹ cuts be burned up.
