Gill's Notes on the Bible
Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying. Or again, as the Arabic version; for this is a distinct prophecy from the former; though of the same kind with it; and was delivered out, either immediately upon the former; or, however, some time between that and the following in the next chapter, which has a date to it. The Targum calls it the word of prophecy from the Lord.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A dirge. Supposing the date of the prophecy to be the same as that of the preceding, there were now but four, or perhaps three, years to the final overthrow of the kingdom of Judah by Nebuchadnezzar.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VII
This chapter, which also forms a distinct prophecy, foretells
the dreadful destruction of the land of Israel, or Judah, (for
after the captivity of the ten tribes these terms are often
used indiscriminately for the Jews in general,) on account of
the heinous sins of its inhabitants, 1-15;
and the great distress of the small remnant that should escape,
16-19.
The temple itself, which they had polluted with idolatry, is
devoted to destruction, 20-22;
and the prophet is directed to make a chain, as a type of that
captivity, in which both king and people should be led in bonds
to Babylon, 23-27.
The whole chapter abounds in bold and beautiful figures, flowing
in an easy and forcible language.
