1 The wordes that the Lorde spake vnto the prophete Ieremie, cocerning Babylon and the lande of the Chaldees: 2 Preache among the gentiles, let your voyce be hearde, make a token, crye out, kepe no scilence, but say, Babylon is wonne, Bel is confounded, and Merodach is ouercome, yea their gods be brought to shame, and their images burst in peeces: 3 For out of the north there doth come a people against her, which shall make her lande so waste that no body shall dwell therin, neither man nor beast, for they shall flee and depart from thence. 4 In those dayes, and at that tyme saith the Lorde, the chyldren of Israel shall come, they and the children of Iuda, weeping and making haste, and shal seeke the Lorde their God. 5 They shall aske the way to Sion, thither shall they turne their faces, saying: Come, and we wyll cleaue to the Lorde in a couenaunt that neuer shalbe broken. 6 My people haue ben a lost flocke, my sheepheardes haue deceaued them, and haue made them go astray vpon the hylles, they haue gone from the mountayne to the litle hyl, and forgotten their folde. 7 All they that came vpon them haue deuoured them, and their enemies said, We haue made no fault agaynst them, for they haue displeased the Lorde, [yea euen the Lorde which is] the habitation of their righteousnesse, and the hope of their fathers. 8 Flee from Babylon, and depart out of the lande of the Chaldees, and be ye as the rammes that go before the flocke.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word that the Lord spake against Babylon,.... Or "to", of "of Babylon" c; the city of Babylon, the metropolis of the Chaldean empire; sometimes it signifies the whole country, here the city only, as appears by what follows:

[and] against the land of the Chaldeans; whither the Jews were carried captive, for whose comfort this prophecy is delivered out; and which had subdued other nations, and was become an universal monarchy; these people are mentioned last, because the rest of the nations were to drink the cup of God's wrath at their hands, and then they were to drink it after them; see Jeremiah 25:9; this is to be understood not only of Babylon and its empire, literally taken, but of mystical Babylon and its dependencies; of Rome, and its jurisdiction; of antichrist, and the antichristian states, the last enemies of the church and people of God, who will be destroyed by the pouring out of the seven vials; see Revelation 15:1. This prophecy, which is called "the word that the Lord spake", for it was from him, the thing was decreed and declared by him, came

by Jeremiah the prophet, to whom the king of Babylon had been very kind; but yet he must be, and was, faithful as a prophet, to deliver what he had from the Lord concerning the ruin of his empire.

c אל בבל "ad Babel", Montanus; "de Babylone", V. L. "de Babel", Cocceius.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER L

This and the following chapter contain a prophecy relating to

the fall of Babylon, interspersed with several predictions

relative to the restoration of Israel and Judah, who were to

survive their oppressors, and, on their repentance, to be

pardoned and brought to their own land. This chapter opens with

a prediction of the complete destruction of all the Babylonish

idols, and the utter desolation of Chaldea, through the

instrumentality of a great northern nation, 1-3.

Israel and Judah shall be reinstated in the land of their

forefathers after the total overthrow of the great Babylonish

empire, 4, 5.

Very oppressive and cruel bondage of the Jewish people during

the captivity, 6, 7.

The people of God are commanded to remove speedily from

Babylon, because an assembly of great nations are coming out of

the north to desolate the whole land, 8-10.

Babylon, the hammer of the whole earth, the great desolator of

nations, shall itself become a desolation on account of its

intolerable pride, and because of the iron yoke it has rejoiced

to put upon a people whom a mysterious Providence had placed

under its domination, 11-34.

The judgments which shall fall upon Chaldea, a country addicted

to the grossest idolatry, and to every species of superstition,

shall be most awful and general, as when God overthrew Sodom

and Gomorrah, 35-40.

Character of the people appointed to execute the Divine

judgments upon the oppressors of Israel, 41-45.

Great sensation among the nations at the very terrible and

sudden fall of Babylon, 46.

NOTES ON CHAP. L

Verse Jeremiah 50:1. THE WORD THAT THE LORD SPAKE AGAINST BABYLON — This is also a new head of discourse.

The prophecy contained in this and the following chapter was sent to the captives in Babylon in the fourth year of the reign of Zedekiah. They are very important; they predict the total destruction of the Babylonish empire, and the return of the Jews from their captivity. These chapters were probably composed, with several additions, out of the book that was then sent by Jeremiah to the captives by the hand of Seraiah. See Jeremiah 51:59-64.
