Jeremiah 30:18

upon her own heap. This cannot have a spiritual application; still less interpretation. It is literally Zion. This was written in the book, before the siege, which had already been foretold (chs. 7; 19; Jeremiah 21:10 , Jeremiah 34:2 , Jeremiah 37:10 ).

heap = ruins.

palace = fortress.

after the manner thereof: or, upon its own site.
