Gill's Notes on the Bible
Harness the horses,.... Put on their bridles and saddles and gird them: or, "bind the horses" r; that is, to the chariots; put them to, as we commonly express it: Egypt abounded in horses, and so no doubt brought a large cavalry, and a multitude of chariots, into the field of battle:
and get up, ye horsemen; upon the horses, or into the chariots, and so be ready to receive the enemy, or to attack him:
and stand forth with [your] helmets; present themselves on horseback, or in their chariots, with their helmets on their heads, to cover them in the day of battle:
furbish the spears; that they may be sharp and piercing, and look bright and glittering, and strike terror in the enemy:
[and] put on the brigandines; coats of mail, to cover the whole body, which were made of iron, consisting of rings, as Kimchi observes.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
From the infantry the prophet proceeds to the chariots, in which the Egyptians placed great confidence.
Get up, ye horsemen - Or, “mount the steeds.”
Furbish - i. e., polish, sharpen.
Brigandines - In old times brigand meant a soldier, and we still call a division of an army a brigade, and a commander a brigadier, i. e., a brigandier, or captain of brigands. Similarly a brigandine means a soldier’s equipment, and is put here for a coat of mail.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 46:4. Furbish the spears — Cleanse, brighten, and sharpen them; from the Franco-Gallic fourbir, to polish, brighten.
Brigandines. — A coat of mail, especially that which was made scale fashion; one plate overlapping the other, like the scales of fish.
