以西結書 24:2 RCUVTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 24:1-14

We have here, I. The notice God gives to Ezekiel in Babylon of Nebuchadnezzar's laying siege to Jerusalem, just at the time when he was doing it (Ezek. 24:2): ?Son of man, take notice, the king of Babylon, who is now abroad with his army, thou knowest not where, set himself against Jerusalem this same day.? It was many miles, it was many days? journey, from Jerusalem to Babylon. Perhaps the last intelligence they had from the army was that the design was upon Rabbath of the children of Ammon... read more

Son of man, write thee the name of the day ,.... That is, what day of the week it was, as well as what day of the month; as whether the first, or second, or third, &c.;: for the Jews had no other names for their days, as we have: even of this same day ; according to Bishop Usher F18 Annales Vet. Test. A. M. 3414. , it was the 30th of January, and the fifth day of the week (Thursday); A.M. 3414, or 590 before Christ. Mr. Whiston F19 Chronological Tables, cent. 10. places... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 24:1-5

The seething-pot. I. THE VESSEL . Jerusalem is compared to a seething-pot. The character of the city had certain points of resemblance. 1. Unity . All the parts are thrown into one vessel. There was a common life in the one city. All classes shared a common fortune. They who are united in sin will be united in doom. 2. Vain protection . The heat of the fire came through the vessel. The wails of Jerusalem did not save the doomed city. No earthly shelter will protect... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 24:1-14

The consuming cauldron. The threatened judgment has at last descended upon the guilty city; and Ezekiel, far away in the land of the Captivity, sees in vision, and declares to his fellow-captives by a parable, the siege of Jerusalem now actually taking place. As in so many parts of his prophecies, Ezekiel reveals by symbol that which he has to communicate. Opinions differ as to whether the cauldron was actually filled with the joints of animals and was actually heated by a fire. But the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 24:1-14

The interior mechanism of war. The prophet is commissioned to employ another homely metaphor. The patience and ingenuity of God's love are inexhaustible. The homeliest imagery is employed with a view to vivid and abiding impression. Here it is shown that behind all the machinery and circumstance of war, a hand Divine directs and overrules. A moral force resides within the material and human agency. I. THE NECESSITY FOR THE SCOURGE . The necessity arose from the excessive... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 24:1-14

The parable of the cauldron; or, the judgment upon Jerusalem. "Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me," etc. The interpretation of the chief features of this parable is not difficult. "The cauldron is Jerusalem. The flesh and the bones that are put therein are the Jews, the ordinary inhabitants of the city and the fugitives from the country. The fire is the fire of war. Water is poured into the cauldron, because in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 24:2

Memorable days. Ezekiel was to take note of the day on which he received a message concerning the approaching ruin of Jerusalem, as it was to be on the anniversary of that day that the King of Babylon would besiege Jerusalem. Thus it would be seen that the prediction was strikingly fulfilled. This is one instance of the marking of memorable days. I. THE OCCURRENCE OF MEMORABLE DAYS . In themselves all days may be equally sacred ( Romans 14:5 ). Nevertheless, a difference of... read more

Ezekiel 24:1-2. Again, in the ninth year Namely, of Jehoiachin’s captivity, and of Zedekiah’s reign; the word of the Lord came unto me Namely, in Chaldea, where the prophet now was, and where, as the words here evidently imply, God gave him notice, though many hundreds of miles distant from Jerusalem, of Nebuchadnezzar’s beginning to lay siege to that city, just at the time when he began to do it. Saying, The king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem Hebrew, סמךְ אל ירושׁלים , hath... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 24:1-14

The cooking pot (24:1-14)On the day Babylon began its siege of Jerusalem, Ezekiel spoke another message (24:1-2; see 2 Kings 25:1). Previously the Jerusalemites had boasted that the walls of the city would protect them from the Babylonian armies as a cooking pot protects the meat within from the fire (see 11:3). Ezekiel now uses the illustration of the cooking pot in an entirely opposite sense. The people of Jerusalem (the meat in the pot) are going to be ‘cooked alive’ by the ‘fire’ of the... read more
