Contextual Overview
1Again in the ninth year [of King Jehoiachin's captivity by Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon], in the tenth month, on the tenth [day] of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 2"Son of man, record the name of the day, this very day. The king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day. 3"Speak a parable against the rebellious house [of Judah] and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Put on a pot; put it on and also pour water into it; 4Put in it the pieces [of meat], Every good piece (the people of Jerusalem), the thigh and the shoulder; Fill it with choice bones. 5"Take the choicest of the flock, And also pile wood under the pot. Make it boil vigorously And boil its bones in the pot." 6'Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "Woe (judgment is coming) to the bloody city, To the pot in which there is rust And whose rust has not gone out of it! Take out of it piece by piece, Without making any choice. 7"For her blood [that she has shed] remains in her midst; She put it on the bare rock; She did not pour it on the ground To cover it with dust. 8"That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood [guilt for her children sacrificed to Molech] on the bare rock, That it may not be covered." 9'Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "Woe to the bloody city! I will also make the pile [of wood] high. 10"Heap on wood, kindle the fire, Boil the meat well [done] And mix in the spices, And let the bones be burned.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Heap on wood, kindle the fire,.... This is said either to the prophet, to do this in an emblematic way; or to the Chaldean army, to prepare for the siege, encompass the city, begin their attacks, and throw in their stones out of their slings and engines, and arrows from their bows:
consume the flesh; not entirely, since it is afterwards to be spiced; but thoroughly boil it; denoting the severe sufferings the inhabitants should undergo before their utter ruin:
spice it well; pepper them off; batter their walls, beat down their houses, distress them by all manner of ways and means; signifying that this would be grateful to the Lord, as his justice would be glorified in the destruction of this people; and as the plunder of them would be like a spiced and sweet morsel to the enemy; whose appetites would hereby be sharpened and become keen, and to whom the sacking and plundering the city would be as agreeable as well seasoned meat to a hungry man:
and let the bones be burnt; either under it, or rather in it; even the strongest and most powerful among the people destroyed, who should hold out the longest in the siege. The Targum of the whole is,
"multiply kings; gather an army; order the auxiliaries, and prepare against her warriors, and let her mighty ones be confounded.''
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Consume ... spice it well - i. e., âdress the flesh, and make it froth and bubble, that the bones and the flesh may be all boiled up together.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 24:10. Heap on wood — Let the siege be severe, the carnage great, and the ruin and catastrophe complete.
