耶利米书 49:32 CUNPSS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 49:28-33

These verses foretell the desolation that Nebuchadnezzar and his forces should make among the people of Kedar (who descended from Kedar the son of Ishmael, and inhabited a part of Arabia the Stony), and of the kingdoms, the petty principalities, of Hazor, that joined to them, who perhaps were originally Canaanites, of the kingdom of Hazor, in the north of Canaan, which had Jabin for its king, but, being driven thence, settled in the deserts of Arabia and associated themselves with the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 49:32

And their camels shall be a booty ,.... To the Chaldean army, as before, Jeremiah 49:29 ; and the multitude of their cattle a spoil; to the same ; the Kedarenes had large flocks of sheep, as well as a multitude of camels, on which they lived, and in which their substance lay; see Isaiah 60:6 ; and I will scatter into all winds them that are in the utmost corners ; them that were gone with their flocks to feed them in the uttermost parts of their land; who, on hearing of the... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 49:32

Verse 32 It now follows, 1 will disperse them to every wind Here Jeremiah predicts the scattering of that nation. It sometimes happens that a country is plundered by enemies, when yet the inhabitants, stripped of their goods, remain there and live in poverty. But together with poverty, Jeremiah declares that there would be no ordinary exile, for the words are emphatical, I will scatter them to every wind There is here an implied contrast between that people and chaff; for as the chaff is... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 49:28-33

Against the nomad and partly settled Arabs—the former described under the name Kedar (see on Jeremiah 2:10 ), the latter under that of Hazor (connected with hazer, an unwalled village; comp. Le Jeremiah 25:31 ). This use of Hazer is remarkable; elsewhere the name denotes towns in Palestine ( Joshua 11:1 ; Joshua 15:23 ; Nehemiah 11:33 ). There are two plainly marked strophes, Jeremiah 49:28-30 and Jeremiah 49:31-33 , both beginning with a summons to the foe to take the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 49:32

Them that are in the utmost corners. Another of Jeremiah's characteristic phrases, which should rather be tendered, the corner clipped ( i.e. having the hair cut off about the ears and temples; see on Jeremiah 9:26 ). From all sides. "Nebuchadnezzar will so arrange his troops that the Bedaween [but the people of Hazer were not Bedaween, i.e. desert Arabs] will be surrounded on all sides, and, being thus unable to escape in a body, will be scattered to 'all the winds,' to the four... read more

Jeremiah 49:30-33 . Flee ye, get you far off Hebrew, נדו מאד ; Vulgate, Abite vehementer, Go away with eagerness, or, haste. Dwell deep, or, “retire deep for to dwell:” see note on Jeremiah 49:8. Arise, get you up unto the wealthy nation The prophet here gives the Chaldeans a commission from God to undertake this expedition, and seize upon the wealth of the inhabitants of Hazor; which have neither gates nor bars Who have never been attacked, and therefore live securely without walls... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 49:28-33

A message concerning Kedar (49:28-33)Even the wandering tribes of the desert will suffer from the Babylonian invasions. The particular tribe that Jeremiah mentions is Kedar, which occupied a region known as Hazor. The people of Kedar lived in tents, kept flocks of sheep, and were shrewd traders (Psalms 120:5; Isaiah 60:7; Ezekiel 27:21). Jeremiah announces that their settlements will be wrecked, their animals will be taken, and they themselves will flee in terror (28-30).At the same time the... read more
