Contextual Overview

¹Moreover, the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the gate of the LORD'S house, which faced eastward. And behold, at the entrance of the gate there were twenty-five men; and I saw among them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people. ²Then the Spirit said to me, "Son of man, these are the men who devise evil and give wicked advice in this city, ³who say, 'Is not the time near to build houses? This city is [secure just like] the pot and we are the meat [in it].' ⁴"Therefore, prophesy against them; prophesy, son of man!" ⁵Then the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and He said to me, "Say, 'Thus says the LORD, "This is what you think, house of Israel, for I know your thoughts. ⁶"You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the corpses [of righteous men]."⁷'Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "Your dead whom you have laid in the midst of your city are the meat and this city is the pot; but I shall force you out of [the security of] it. ⁸"You have feared the sword; so I will bring a sword upon you," says the Lord GOD. ⁹"And I will bring you out of the midst of the city and hand you over to strangers and execute judgment against you. ¹⁰"You will fall by the sword; I will judge and punish you [in front of your neighbors] at the border of [the land of] Israel; and you will know [without any doubt] that I am the LORD.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ye have multiplied your slain in this city,.... Had killed many of the prophets of the Lord that had been sent unto them, and had shed much innocent blood; and not only had unjustly condemned many to die, and had put them to death without a cause; but also the death of all those that were slain while the city was besieging, and when it was taken, were owing to their advice and counsel, in encouraging them to hold out, and not deliver up the city; fancying they should be able to defend it, contrary to the declarations of the Lord by the prophet; wherefore their death is laid to such advisers, and they are called their slain:

and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain; such numbers of innocent persons being put to death, as in the times of Manasseh,

2 Kings 21:16; or so many dying of the famine, pestilence, and sword, during the siege, and at the taking of Jerusalem.
