Contextual Overview
1 And the word of Yahweh came unto me. in the ninth year in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, saying: 2 Son of man. Write thee the name of the day, this selfsame day, - the king of Babylon cast himself against Jerusalem, on this selfsame day. 3 Put thou forth therefore, against the perverse house a parable, and say unto them Thus saith My Lord, Yahweh: Sot on the caldron set it on, Moreover also pour into it water: 4 Gather the pieces thereof into it, Every good piece thigh and shoulder, With the choice of the bones, fill it: 5 Take of the choice of the rock, Moreover also pe of bones place under it,- Bo the pieces thereof, Yea let the bones of it seethe in the midst thereof. 6 Wherefore, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Woe! city of bloodshed. The caldron whose scum is in it, and whose scum, hath not gone out of it: Piece by piece, bring it out, There hath fallen thereon no lot. 7 For, her own blood, hath come to be in her midst, Upon the smooth face of the cliff, hath she set it,- She hath not poured it out on the earth, that she might cover it with dust. 8 To bring up indignation to execute an avenging, have I set her blood upon the smooth face of the cliff, - that it may not be covered. 9 Wherefore Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Woe! city of bloodshed, - Even I myself, will make large the pe. 10 Heap on the wood Kindle the fire, Consume the flesh, Yea season with spice, And let the bones be scorched.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
That it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance,.... Into the heart and mind of God, into his face, speaking after the manner of men; observing such gross and open wickedness, he determined within himself to show his resentment, manifest his wrath and displeasure, and take vengeance on such capital and impudent offenders:
I have set her blood upon the top of a rock, that it might not be covered; by way of just retaliation; that as her sin was publicly committed, and no repentance shown for it, so her punishment should be open and manifest to all the world, and no forgiveness should be granted her. The Targum is,
"I have revealed their sins, because they have shed innocent blood openly, that it might not be forgiven.''
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The top of a rock - The blood was poured upon a naked, dry, rock where it could not be absorbed or unnoticed.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 24:8. That it might cause fury — This very blood shall be against them, as the blood of Abel was against Cain.
