Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

By the sign of Ezekiel's not mourning for the death of his wife is shown that the calamities coming upon Jerusalem were too great to be lamented, so great that they should sink down under them into a silent despair,

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Note, The fire which God kindles for the consuming of impenitent sinners shall never abate, much less go out, for want of fuel. Tophet has fire and much wood, Isa. xxx. 33 . [2.] The meat, as it is boiled, is taken out, and given to the Chaldeans for them to feast upon. " Consume the flesh; let it be thoroughly boiled, boiled to rags.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

spice it well--that the meat may be the more palatable, that is, I will make the foe delight in its destruction as much as one delights in well-seasoned, savory meat. GROTIUS, needlessly departing from the obvious sense, translates, "Let it be boiled down to a compound."

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

And spice it well - To express this justice, that is acceptable to God and men. The bones - The greatest, strongest, and firmest of the Jews shall perish in this fiery indignation.
