Ezekiel24:10
10 Heap on wood ; kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burnt .
Either God's word, what he will do pursuant of the 8th verse, or his word to the Prophet to typifie to the people what should be done, or to the Chaldaean Army to hasten what they were to do in destroying the City.
Make full preparations.
Begin the Execution of Judgment.
'Tis a fire, not gently to dress or prepare Meat, but to destroy, and burn up.
Either to take away the noisom smell, or to express the pleasing savour of this Justice to God, and men whom he appointed to this work.
In such fires the bones hold out longest, but this fire shall at last consume these also, that the destruction may be universal, the greatest, strongest, and firmest of these Jews shall perish in this fiery indignation.
