καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με πνεῦμα καὶ ἤγαγέν με ἐπὶ τὴν πύλην τοῦ οἴκου κυρίου τὴν κατέναντι τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολάς καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπὶ τῶν προθύρων τῆς πύλης ὡς εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε ἄνδρες καὶ εἶδον ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν τὸν Ιεζονιαν τὸν τοῦ Εζερ καὶ Φαλτιαν τὸν τοῦ Βαναιου τοὺς ἀφηγουμένους τοῦ λαοῦ
And a spirit took me up and brought me to the gate of the house of the Lord, the one opposite, facing east; and behold, at the entrance of the gate were about twenty-five men, and I saw in their midst Jezoniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, leaders of the people.
It begins by relocating Ezekiel to the eastern gate, where the vision immediately links civic leadership with the temple setting and prepares for a judgment oracle against named rulers.

The metaphor is not denied but reinterpreted: the slain remain inside the pot, while the living leaders will be dragged out for judgment rather than sheltered within it.
