Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, &c.] Or upon the city, as the Targum; pour out all his indignation, and inflict just punishment upon the city of Jerusalem and its inhabitants: and upon them that have daubed it with untempered [mortar]; the false prophets: so the Targum, “and the false prophets that prophesy in it false prophecies:” and will say unto you, the wall [is] no [more], neither they that daubed it; neither the city of Jerusalem, nor the prophets that prophesied of its safety; nor their false prophecies; nor the vain hopes of the people they fed them with: so the Targum, “there is no city, nor false prophets.”
