Jeremiah 30:13

“[There is] none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up, etc.] None that will give themselves the trouble to look into their wound to judge of it; to consult, and reason, and debate about the nature of it; and what methods are most advisable to take for the healing and binding of it up: or, as others, “for the compression”f576 of it; the squeezing out the corrupt matter, in order to bring it to a cure: thou hast no healing medicines; either of thine own, or of others, preparing for thee: the design of all these expressions is to show the helpless and hopeless state of the people of Israel, before their call, conversion, and restoration; by which it will appear to be the Lord’s work,…”

“none to plead--a new image from a court of justice. bound up--namely, with the bandages applied to tie up a wound. no healing medicines--literally, "medicines of healing," or else applications, (literally, "ascensions") of medicaments.”
