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.
