Contextual Overview
20Go up to Lebanon and cry out;raise your voice in Bashan;cry out from Abarim,for all your lovers have been crushed. 21I spoke to you when you were secure.You said, “I will not listen.”This has been your way since youth;indeed, you have never listened to me. 22The wind will take charge of all your shepherds,and your lovers will go into captivity.Then you will be ashamed and humiliatedbecause of all your evil.23You residents of Lebanon,nestled among the cedars,how you will groan when pains come on you,agony like a woman in labor. 24“As I live”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“though you, Coniah son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, were a signet ring on my right hand, I would tear you from it. 25In fact, I will hand you over to those you dread, who intend to take your life, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Chaldeans. 26I will hurl you and the mother who gave birth to you into another land, where neither of you were born, and there you will both die. 27They will never return to the land they long to return to.” 28Is this man Coniah a despised, shattered pot,a jar no one wants?Why are he and his descendants hurled outand cast into a land they have not known? 29Earth, earth, earth,hear the word of the Lord!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The wind shall eat up all thy pastors,.... King, nobles, counsellors, priests, prophets, and elders of the people; they shall be carried away as chaff before the wind, or perish as trees and fruits are blasted with an east wind; to which Nebuchadnezzar and his army are sometimes compared; see Jeremiah 18:17. The Targum is,
"all thy governors shall be scattered to every wind;''
and thy lovers shall go into captivity: the Assyrians and Egyptians, as before; see Jeremiah 52:31;
surely then thou shalt be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness; being disappointed of all protection from their governors at home, and of all help from their allies abroad; and will then, when too late, be convinced of all their wickedness, and ashamed of it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Shall eat up all thy pastors - literally, shall depasture (Jeremiah 2:16 note) thy pastors. Those who used to drive their flocks to consume the herbage shall themselves be the first prey of war. The âpastorsâ mean not the kings only, but all in authority.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 22:22. The wind shall eat up all thy pastors — A blast from God's mouth shall carry off thy kings, princes, prophets, and priests.
