This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





This is God’s word, either what he will do pursuant of the 8th verse; or his word to the prophet, to typify to the people what should be done, or to the Chaldean army, to hasten what they were to do in destroying the city. Heap on wood; make full preparations.



Kindle the fire; begin the execution of judgment.



Compare the flesh: it is a fire, not gently to dress or prepare meat, but to destroy, and burn up.



Spice it well; either to take away the noisome smell, or to express the pleasing savour of this justice to God, and men whom he appointed to this work.



Let the bones be burned: in such fires the bones hold out longest, but this fire shall at last consume these also, that the destruction may be universal the greatest, strongest, and firmest of these Jews shall perish in this fiery indignation.
