and it shall.Or, as Bp. Lowth renders, "and it shall be unto me as the hearth of the great altar;" that is, it shall be the seat of the fire of God, which shall issue from thence to consume his enemies. The hearth of the altar is expressly called {ariel} by Ezekiel, ch. 43:15; which is put, in the former part of the verse, for Jerusalem, the city in which the altar was.
The subject of this and the four following chapters, says Bp. Lowth, is the invasion of Sennacherib; the great distress of the Jews while it continued; their sudden and unexpected deliverance by God's immediate and miraculous interposition on their behalf; the subsequent prosperous state of the kingdom under Hezekiah; interspersed with severe reproofs and threats of punishment for their hypocrisy, stupidity, infidelity, their want of trust in God, and their vain reliance on the assistance of Egypt; and with promises of better times, both immediately to succeed, and to be expected in the future age.

Ezek. 24:3‑13• 3And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah; Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it:
4gather the pieces thereof into it, even every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.
5Take the choice of the flock, and burn also the bones under it, and make it boil well; and let them seethe the bones of it therein.
6Wherefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah; Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose scum is therein, and whose scum is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it.
7For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the top of a rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust;
8that it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance; I have set her blood on the top of a rock, that it should not be covered.
9Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.
10Heap on the wood, kindle the fire, boil thoroughly the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned.
11Then set it empty upon its coals, that it may be hot, and the brass of it may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, and that its rust may be consumed.
12With frauds it wearied itself; and the greatness of its scum goeth not off from it: into the fire its scum!
13In thy uncleanness is incest: because I cleansed thee and thou wouldst not be cleansed, thou shalt not be cleansed from thy uncleanness anymore till I have caused my fury to rest on thee.

Rev. 19:17‑18• 17And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in mid-heaven, Come, gather yourselves together unto the great supper of God;
18that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of chiliarchs, and the flesh of strong men, and the flesh of horses, and of those that sit on them, and the flesh of all, both free and bond, and both little and great.
