Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 50:7

All that found them have devoured them: as they are in the condition of lost sheep, so they have been under the fate of lost sheep, which every dog, fox, wolf devours. And those that are their enemies have pretended that in destroying them they have done no ill, because they had sinned; so as the sins of the Jews did both expose them to the wrath of God, and also imboldened their enemies, and encouraged them to think that they did God service in destroying them. The habitation of justice: some... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Jeremiah 50:1-46

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTES.—1. Chronology of the Chapter.—This and the following chapter constitute one prophecy against Babylon; and the date of its authorship is given in chap. Jeremiah 51:59 : “the fourth year of Zedekiah.” Jeremiah delivered this written prophecy to Seriah, the king’s chamberlain and Baruch’s brother (cf. chap. Jeremiah 32:12), who accompanied Zedekiah the king to Babylon, probably at Nebuchadnezzar’s summons, for some imposing state occasion: the prophet’s design being... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 50:1-46

Shall we turn now to Jeremiah chapter 50.Chapter 50 begins with the words,The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet ( Jeremiah 50:1 ).The end of chapter 51 declares, "And thou shalt say, 'Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her, and they shall be weary.'

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 50:1-46

Jeremiah 50:1 . The word that the Lord spake against Babylon. Messiah in person spake to the prophet, as is stated in Jeremiah 48:1. But while he spake against Babylon, his lips dropped with grace and mercy upon Zion, the habitation of his holiness. Of the fall of Babylon, see on Isaiah 13:14. Isaiah 13:21., where the poetry is beautiful and sublime. Fragments however remain to be gleaned here. The city, according to the best accounts which can be collected from Herodotus, Xenophon,... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Jeremiah 50:6

Jeremiah 50:6My people have forgotten their resting-place.Cannot you rest?God has made Himself the resting-place for the human soul; and unless we fix our heart upon Him we may rest, but it is only for a time. The rest which God provides for us is a rest which satisfies us, and it is a rest which we can always have, a rest which “remaineth,” and which cannot be taken away from the people of God.1. Many people are weary and very far from restful on account of business cares. You see continually... read more

Ver. 7. All that found them have devoured them. ] As ravenous creatures do wandering sheep. Stragglers are a fit prey for seducers. And their adversaries said, We offend not, ] i.e., God will have it so; Jer 40:2 but this was no good plea. Jer 2:3 The habitation of justice. ] Or, In the... read more
