Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 24:11

11 Then set it empty upon the coales thereof, that the brass of it may be hot , and may burn , and that the filthiness of it maybe molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed.

The Hieroglyphick Pot.

The Water, Flesh▪ Bones all consumed, i. e. the Citizens all wasted with Sword. Famine, or Pestilence, the City left as an empty overboil'd Pot.

Signifying the burning of the City it self, after the emptying of its Inhabitants.

Perhaps he alludes to the impudence of their sins, in that the City is likened to a Pot of Brass.

God's Judgments would increase upon them, as heat doth in a Pot set on Coals.

Which is the highest Degree, so should these miseries increase.

Type of the sinfulness, the unreformed sinfulness of the City.

That their wickedness may be taken away with their Persons, and Citie, they should have been purged by gentler meltings, which God used since they were not, nor would be purified, now they shall be melted to the utter destruction of them.

Vide verse 6. let. c.
