Ezekiel 24:4 Heap together into it the pieces thereof, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder, choice pieces and full of bones.

Choice. Hebrew, "the choice of the bones," or the finest pieces separated from the bones, as the Septuagint and the sequel seem to require. (Calmet) --- The bones might serve to burn, ver. 5. (Haydock) See St. Jerome. (Vatable, etc.) (Calmet)
