²¹ Go downe [O thou auenger] into the enemies lande, and visite them that dwell therin: downe with them, & smite them vpon the backes saith the Lorde, do accordyng to all that I haue commaunded thee. ²² There is gone about the lande a crye of a slaughter and great murther [namelye on this maner] ²³ Howe happeneth it that the hammer of the whole worlde is thus broken and brused in sunder?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken!.... The Targum is,

"how is the king cut down and broken that moved the whole earth!''

The king of Babylon, or the kingdom of Babylon, which was like a hammer for its hardness and strength; and being an instrument, in the hand of God, of beating to pieces and destroying the kingdoms and nations around it; but is now destroyed itself. These are the words either of the prophet, or rather of the people of other nations, wondering how this destruction came about, and rejoicing at it;

how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations! this explains who and what is meant by the hammer of the earth, and by its being cut asunder and broken; even the utter destruction of the city and kingdom of Babylon.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The hammer - Babylon, by whose instrumentality Yahweh had crushed the nations, is now cut asunder, i. e., the head of iron or bronze is cut away from the wooden handle, and broken.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 50:23. The hammer of the whole earth — Nebuchadnezzar dashed to pieces the nations against whom he warred. He was the scourge of the Lord.
