Seething — Pot — I see a pot coming, meaning the Babylonian army, who would besiege Jerusalem as a fire plays round the pot, when it is to be made boil; and reduce the inhabitants to miserable extremities. Face — Or front of the pot, or furnace, the place where the fire was put in, or blowed up to make it boil. North — Indicating from whence their misery should come, namely, from Chaldea, which lay north from Jerusalem.
