Contextual Overview
1 The Lord 's Spirit lifted me up and took me to the east gate of the temple, where I saw twenty-five men, including the two leaders, Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah. 2 The Lord said, "Ezekiel, son of man, these men are making evil plans and giving dangerous advice to the people of Jerusalem. 3 They say things like, ‘Let's build more houses. This city is like a cooking pot over a fire, and we are the meat, but at least the pot keeps us from being burned in the fire.' 4 So, Ezekiel, condemn them!" 5 The Lord 's Spirit took control of me and told me to tell these leaders: I, the Lord God, know what you leaders are saying. 6 You have murdered so many people that the city is filled with dead bodies! 7 This city is indeed a cooking pot, but the bodies of those you killed are the meat. And so I will force you to leave Jerusalem, 8 and I'll send armies to attack you, just as you fear. 9 Then you will be captured and punished by foreign enemies. 10 You will be killed in your own country, but not before you realize that I, the Lord , have done these things.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
This [city] shall not be your cauldron,.... It was one, as in
Ezekiel 11:7; but not theirs; it was the cauldron for the slain, for the dead, but not the living:
neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst of it; or, "and ye shall be" g or, "but ye shall be"; the negative is understood, and rightly supplied by us; though the Targum renders it without it,
"but ye shall be in the midst of it, as flesh that is boiled in the midst of a pot:''
[but] I will judge you in the border of Israel; this is repeated, that they might take notice of it, and to assure them that so it would be.
g ואתם תהיו "et vos critis", Montanus, Cocceius.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 11:11. I will judge you in the border of Israel, — Though Riblah was in Syria, yet it was on the very frontiers of Israel; and it was here that Zedekiah's sons were slain, and his own eyes put out.
