Ezekiel 15:4 Behold it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire hath consumed both ends thereof, and the midst thereof is reduced to ashes: shall it be useful for any work?

Ashes. It is not even solid enough for fuel. (Calmet) --- When a faggot is consumed in the middle, the ends are also put into the fire; so not one shall escape who dies out of the Church. (Worthington) --- The wicked Jews shall surely suffer, ver. 6. (Haydock)
