Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 24:3

_ _ pot — caldron. Alluding to the self-confident proverb used among the people, Ezekiel 11:3 (see on Ezekiel 11:3), “This city is the caldron and we be the flesh”; your proverb shall prove awfully true, but in a different sense from what you intend. So far from the city proving an iron, caldron-like defense from the fire, it shall be as a caldron set on the fire, and the people as so many pieces of meat subjected to boiling heat. See Jeremiah 1:13.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 24:1-14.
