EZEKIEL CHAPTER 24
By the parable of a boiling pot is showed the destruction of Jerusalem, the bloody city, Eze_24:1-14. Ezekiel is forbidden to mourn for the death of his wife, Eze_24:15-18, to denote that this calamity of the Jews shall be beyond all expressions of sorrow, Eze_24:19-24. In that day of affliction the prophet’s mouth shall be opened to their conviction, Eze_24:25-27.

The tenth month; which answers to part of December and January.
The tenth day; about our 29th of December, when the winter was well over with them.
Came unto me; the prophet was now in Babylon many leagues from Jerusalem.
