Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Jeremiah 13:22, Lamentations 1:8, Ezekiel 16:37, Ezekiel 23:29, Hosea 2:10

Reciprocal: Isaiah 20:4 - with their Isaiah 47:2 - make bare Isaiah 47:3 - I will take Hosea 2:3 - I strip Nahum 3:5 - I will discover Revelation 3:18 - the shame

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face,.... Turn them up, or throw them over the head or face; that is, expose to public shame and disgrace; which was done when their city and temple were burnt, and they were carried captive; hence it follows:

that thy shame may appear; that their sins might appear to themselves and others, of which they had reason to be ashamed. The allusion is to the treatment which captive women sometimes meet with, or adulterous women, to which the Jews are here compared. The Targum is,

"and I also will reveal the confusion of thy sin upon thy face, and thy shame shall be seen.''

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Therefore will I - literally, “And I also;” I also must have my turn, I too must retaliate. Compare Nahum 3:5.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 13:26. Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face — It was the custom to punish lewd women by stripping them naked, and exposing them to public view; or by throwing their clothes over their heads, as here intimated. Was this the way to correct the evil?
