Commentary on Ezekiel 24:4

Theological / Devotional

The pieces thereof. The Jews themselves. The choice pieces probably designate the upper classes, or the mention of the various pieces may not be for the purpose of designating any particular classes, but only to emphasize that all, even the best, would be involved in the ruin.

Burn. Heb. dur, “to stack in circles.”

Bones. A slight change yields the reading “logs” (cf. v. 10), although bones before the fat is extracted may be used for fuel.
