³⁴ These are the wordes that the Lord spake to the prophete Ieremie concerning Elam, in the beginning of the raigne of Zedekias kyng of Iuda. ³⁵ Thus saith the Lord of hoastes, Beholde, I wyl breake the bowe of Elam, their principall strength. ³⁶ And vpon Elam I wyll bryng the foure windes from the foure quarters of heauen, and wyll scatter them against the same foure wyndes: and there shalbe no people, but some of Elam shall flee vnto them. ³⁷ For I wyll cause Elam to be afraide of their enemies, and of them that seeke their liues, and wyll bryng vpon them a mischiefe, euen my wrath saith the Lorde: And I wyll persecute them with the sworde so long tyll I haue brought them to naught. ³⁸ I wyll set my throne in Elam, I wyll destroy both the kyng and princes from thence saith the Lorde: ³⁹ But in processe of tyme I wyll bryng Elam out of captiuitie agayne, saith the Lorde.

Jeremiah 43:10, Daniel 7:9-14

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I will set my throne in Elam,.... Either when Alexander subdued it, or Cyrus, or rather Nebuchadnezzar, whose palace probably was, as it is certain his successors was, in Shushan in Elam, as before observed from Daniel 8:2. This is called the Lord's throne, because he gave it to him; his conquest of Elam, and his dominion over it, were from him:

and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the Lord; so that there should be no more kings of Elam, and princes and nobles of their own, after this time; and because mention is made of the kings of Elam in the times of Nebuchadnezzar, Jeremiah 25:25; though that is observed in the first year of his reign, some have thought that it is best to understand it or Cyrus, the Lord's servant and anointed; and whose throne might well be called the throne of God, which he gave him, and set him on in an eminent manner, not only there, but elsewhere; see Ezra 1:2; and when this country of Elam, or Elymais, became at part of the Persian empire, and never had any more kings to reign over it separately. Some of the Jewish Rabbins b, as Kimchi observes, interpret the king and princes of Vashti of Haman and his sons; but very wrongly.

b In T. Bab. Megillah, fol. 10. 2.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Literally, king and princes. Elam will lose its independence, and henceforward have no native ruler with his attendant officers.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 49:38. I will set my throne in Elam — This is spoken either of Nebuchadnezzar or Cyrus. It is certain that Cyrus did render himself master of Elymais and Media, which are in the land of Elam.
