Ezequiel 24:4 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 24:4

Gather the pieces thereof into it
fire being made, and the pot set on, and water poured into it, the next thing is, to put in the pieces that are to be boiled; and these are to be gathered; meaning the people of the land, that were to be gathered from the several parts of it, for their security, as they thought; but the event proved it was for their ruin: even every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder;
the princes and gentry, the great and the mighty, the rich and wealthy of the people; who, upon the invasion, got together in Jerusalem, to secure their persons and substance: fill it with the choice bones;
or with those pieces that have the choice bones, that are full of marrow; the strongest among the people; the soldiers, or such as were fit for war; the best of their militia, brought hither to defend the city; but, in fact, to be slain, as they were. The Targum is,

``gather the princes thereof into the midst of her, every terrible man and warrior; fill her with the army of the people.''

Ezequiel 24:4 In-Context

2 “Filho do homem, registre esta data, a data de hoje, porque o rei da Babilônia sitiou Jerusalém exatamente neste dia.

3 Conte a esta nação rebelde uma parábola e diga-lhes: Assim diz o Soberano, o SENHOR:“Ponha a panela para esquentar;ponha-a para esquentar com água.

4 Ponha dentro dela pedaços de carne,os melhores pedaços da coxa e da espádua.Encha-a com o melhor desses ossos;

5 apanhe o melhor do rebanho.Empilhe lenha debaixo dela para cozinhar os ossos;faça-a ferver a água e cozinhe tudoo que está na panela.

6 “Porque assim diz o Soberano, o SENHOR:“Ai da cidade sanguinária,da panela que agora tem uma crosta,cujo resíduo não desaparecerá!Esvazie-a, tirando pedaço por pedaço,sem sorteá-los.
