Ezekiel 24:18
Douay-Rheims
So I spoke to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening: and I did in the morning as he had commanded me.
Adam Clarke
At even my wife died - The prophet's wife was a type of the city, which was to him exceedingly dear. The death of his wife represented the destruction of the city by the Chaldeans; see Eze 24:21, where the temple is represented to be the desire of his eyes, as his wife was, Eze 24:16.
