Ezekiel 22:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 22:21

Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire of my
wrath
Not only gather them in wrath, as before; but blow upon them in wrath, which is often compared to fire in Scripture; and besides, the city and temple of Jerusalem were to be burnt, and were burnt with material fire, in consequence of God's displeasure against his people: and ye shall be melted in the midst thereof;
of the city of Jerusalem; be destroyed by one judgment or another in it; or perish in the conflagration of it.

21 I will gather you and blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in the midst of it.
