Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 52:3

Jeremiah 52:3. For through the anger of the Lord, &c.— For it was so because of the anger of JEHOVAH against Judah and Jerusalem. The particle כי ki, is here causal, and assigns a reason for what went before; namely, why Zedekiah succeeded Jehoiakim in the throne. This happened, it is said, "because of the anger of JEHOVAH;" not that JEHOVAH instigated either them or any man else to do wickedly; but it was of his special order and appointment, for the punishment of a wicked people, that men... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 52:3

3. through . . . anger of . . . Lord . . . Zedekiah rebelled—His "anger" against Jerusalem, determining Him to "cast out" His people "from His presence" heretofore manifested there, led Him to permit Zedekiah to rebel (2 Kings 23:26; 2 Kings 23:27; compare Exodus 9:12; Exodus 10:1; Romans 9:18). That rebellion, being in violation of his oath "by God," was sure to bring down God's vengeance (2 Chronicles 36:13; Ezekiel 17:15; Ezekiel 17:16; Ezekiel 17:18). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 52:1-16

A. The fall of Jerusalem and the capture of Zedekiah 52:1-16This is one of four accounts of the fall of Jerusalem in the Old Testament (cf. 2 Kings 25; 2 Chronicles 36:11-21; Jeremiah 39:1-14). The repetition underlines the importance of the event. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 52:3

The Lord brought hardships on Judah and Jerusalem-during Jehoiakim’s evil reign, because of Judah’s iniquity-until He sent the king out of His presence into Babylon (cf. 2 Chronicles 36:3). To compound Judah’s troubles further, Zedekiah rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar sometime before 588 B.C., the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign (2 Kings 24:20). Because God wanted Zedekiah to submit to Nebuchadnezzar, Zedekiah’s rebellion was more significantly against Yahweh. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 52:1-34

Historical Appendix (probably by the compiler of the book)This chapter is substantially the same as Jeremiah 39 (see notes there), but adds particulars relating to the Temple vessels (Jeremiah 52:17.), while omitting Nebuchadnezzar’s charge as to Jeremiah’s safety (Jeremiah 39:11.). Both accounts are probably based on that of 2 Kings 24:18 to 2 Kings 25:30.1-11. Capture of the city. 12-27. Subsequent severities. 28-30. Nebuchadnezzar’s deportations. 31-34. Concluding notice of Jehoiachin. 4.... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Jeremiah 52:1-34

CHAPTERS 50-51 Babylon These two final chapters contain a great prophecy concerning Babylon, her overthrow and doom. The fifty-first chapter closes with the statement “thus far are the words of Jeremiah.” There is a direct statement that Jeremiah wrote all these words. We find it at the close of Jeremiah 51:59-64 . “Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written against Babylon.” It would be a brazen infidelity which says Jeremiah did... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Jeremiah 52:1-34

Fifty-five Years Old Jer 52:31-34 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign in Judah. Jehoiachin reigned three months. He had hardly been a king at all before he was taken away captive. In captivity he spent thirty-seven years: therefore he was fifty-five years old when this took place. What changes may occur in life: who can tell what we may come to? After thirty-seven years there arose a king who took a fancy to Jehoiachin, and made quite a favourite of him in the court. Good... read more
