Jeremias 25:30-32 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 25:30-38

We have, in these verses, a further description of those terrible desolations which the king of Babylon with his armies should make in all the countries and nations round about Jerusalem. In Jerusalem God had erected his temple; there were his oracles and ordinances, which the neighbouring nations should have attended to and might have received benefit by; thither they should have applied for the knowledge of God and their duty, and then they might have had reason to bless God for their... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 25:30

Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them ,.... What follows, as well as declare all that is before spoken concerning the cup of fury all nations must drink of: the Lord shall roar from on high : from, heaven, like a lion, in violent claps of thunder; or in such dreadful dispensations of his providence, as will be very amazing and terrifying: and utter his voice from his holy habitation ; from heaven, as before; and though it will be terrible, yet quite... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 25:31

A noise shall come up even to the ends of the earth ,.... Wars, and rumours of wars, everywhere, till the cup has gone round, and all nations have drank of it, and have felt the power of divine wrath for their sins: for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations ; will enter into a judicial process with them; will litigate the point with them, and try it openly; that it may be seen who is in the right, and who in the wrong: he will plead with all flesh ; or enter into judgment... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 25:32

Thus saith the Lord of hosts, behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation ,.... Begin in one nation, and then go on to another; first in Judea, and then in Egypt; and so on, like a catching distemper, or like fire that first consumes one house, and then another; and thus shall the cup go round from nation to nation, before prophesied of: thus, beginning at Judea, one nation after another was destroyed by the king of Babylon; then he and his monarchy were destroyed by the Medes and... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 25:30

Verse 30 The word הידד , eidad, is rendered celeusma, a shout; but some render it a mournful singing; and it often occurs when the vintage is spoken of. Celeusma, as it is well known, is the shout of sailors. Its etymology is indeed general in its meaning; for κελεύειν is to exhort, to encourage; and then the noun is exhortation. But as this word is only used as to sailors, I prefer to adopt the word sound, or a loud noise. Then he says, Prophesy thou against them all these words, and say to... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 25:31

Verse 31 He pursues the same subject; he says that there would be a dreadful assault, and that it would extend to the extreme parts of the earth. The word שאון, shaun, means a noise or sound; but it is also taken for violence or assault; and either meaning would not be unsuitable here. The sound then, or assault, shall come to the extreme parts of the earth It then follows, that God had a strife with all nations; and here the Prophet seems to obviate a question that might have been raised,... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 25:32

Verse 32 Jeremiah goes on with the subject which we began to explain in the last Lecture. He had before prophesied of God’s judgments, which were nigh many nations, and which referred to almost all the countries near and known to the Jews, and to some that were afar off. The substance of what has been said is, — that God, who had long spared the wickedness of men, would now become an avenger, so that it might openly appear, that though he had deferred punishment, he would not allow the ungodly... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 25:30

Therefore prophesy thou , etc. Babylon, like the smaller kingdoms which it absorbed, has fallen, and nothing remains (for nothing had been revealed to the prophet concerning an interval to elapse previously) but to picture the great assize from which no flesh should be exempt. As the lion suddenly bursts, roaring, from his lair, so Jehovah, no longer the "good Shepherd," shall roar from on high (comp. Amos 1:2 ; Joel 3:16 ) even upon his habitation , or rather, against his pasture ... read more
