All the cities and villages will be emptied out and the fields destroyed. Then you'll realize that I am God .'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying. Here follows another sign of the desolation of the Jews, which the prophet was unto them; as the former signified their going into captivity, this their famine and distress at the siege of Jerusalem, and the dreadful calamities attending and following that.
