Notes on the Whole Bible
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · 19th-century historical commentary
Source: BibleWord.ai's local reference edition of this named work.
Jeremiah is personally addressed in the verse, because he stood before God as the intercessor, representing the people. (1) God would give Judah’s treasures away for nothing; implying that He did not value them. (2) the cause of this contempt is Judah’s sins. (3) this is justified by Judah having committed them throughout her whole land. return to 'Top of Page'
