Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 31. - I will blow against, etc. The imagery of fire takes the place of that of the sword. The brutish men (same word as in Psalm 49:10; Psalm 92:6) are the Chaldean conquerors. The fact that the adjective may also mean "those that burn" may, in part, have determined Ezekiel's choice of it.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(31) Mine indignation.--The figure of the sword, which has been kept up through the entire chapter, is here dropped; but the language immediately falls into another figure, already employed in Ezekiel 20:47, "I will blow against thee in" (rather, with) "the fire of my wrath." (Comp. the same expression in Ezekiel 22:21.) The image is that of the consuming fire of God's wrath blown by His power against Ammon, as fire is turned by the wind upon a forest to its destruction. (Comp. Isaiah 54:16.) The word "brutish" of the text in the last clause is better than the "burning" of the margin.
