The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 49:20

The counsel of the Lord. At first sight this appears to detract from the perfection of Jehovah. But another prophet declares that the Divine "counsels" are "framed" from eternity ( Isaiah 22:11 ; Isaiah 37:26 ) . Surely the least, etc.; rather, Surely they shall drag them along, the weak ones of the flock; surely their pasture shall be appalled at them. Such is the sad fate of the sheep, now that the resistance of their shepherd has been overpowered. "The weak ones of the flock" is a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 49:21

Is moved; rather, quaketh (as Jeremiah 8:16 ). It is a pity that the Authorized Version has not preserved the present tense throughout the verse. The prophet seems to see his prediction realized before him. In the Red Sea; rather, beside the Bed Sea; comp. 1 Kings 9:26 , "Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom." read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 49:7-22

Edom stretched along the south of Judah from the border of Moab on the Dead Sea to the Mediterranean and the Arabian deserts, and held the same relation to Judah which Moab held toward the kingdom of Israel. Although expressly reserved from attack by Moses Deuteronomy 2:5, a long feud caused the Edomites to cherish so bitter an enmity against Judah, that they exulted with cruel joy over the capture of Jerusalem by the Chaldaeans, and showed great cruelty toward those why fled to them for... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 49:20-22

Jeremiah 49:20-22. Therefore hear the counsel of the Lord Let them, the Edomites, hear and consider what God hath purposed against them. Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out By the least of the flock, may be here understood the common soldiers in the Chaldean army, any one of whom, he says, shall have courage and strength enough to conquer the Idumeans, and draw them to slaughter or captivity. The earth is moved at the noise of their fall The neighbouring countries are... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 49:7-22

A message concerning Edom (49:7-22)The Edomites, the descendants of Esau, prided themselves that they were cleverer than peoples of surrounding nations. They were confident that their country was safe against attack because its rugged mountains provided it with a good defence system. The prophet tells them that neither their wisdom nor their defences will save them from the destruction that God has determined for them (7-8).A vineyard worker picks the grapes that are ripe but leaves the rest; a... read more
