Gill's Notes on the Bible
When Jeremiah was entered into the dungeon,.... Or, "into the house of the pit" l; a dungeon, like a pit or ditch, dark, dirty, or dismal:
and into the cabins; or "cells" m; into a place more inward than the cells, as the Targum; into the innermost and worst part in all the prison, where a man could not well lie, sit, nor stand:
and Jeremiah had remained there many days; in this very uncomfortable condition; very probably till the Chaldean army returned to Jerusalem, as he foretold it should.
l אל בית הבור "in, [vel] ad domum laci", Pagninus, Montanus; "in domum foveae", Schmidt. m ואל החניות "et in cellulas illius", Junius Tremellius, Piscator "et ad cellas", Schmidt.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Dungeon - literally, house of a cistern or pit, and evidently underground. In this cistern-like excavation were several cells or arched vaults, in one of which with little light and less ventilation Jeremiah remained a long time.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 37:16. Entered into the dungeon, and into the cabins — The dungeon was probably a deep pit; and the cabins or cells, niches in the sides, where different malefactors were confined. See Blayney.
