Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Chaldeans shall come again,.... To Jerusalem, after they have defeated or drove back the Egyptian army:
and fight against this city; with fresh rigour and resolution; being exasperated by the methods taken to oblige them to raise the siege:
and take it, and burn it with fire; as they did, Jeremiah 39:8.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Jeremiah’s answer here is even more unfavorable than that which is given in Jeremiah 21:4-7. So hopeless is resistance that the disabled men among the Chaldaeans would alone suffice to capture the city and burn it to the ground.
