For thus saith the Lord God, I will deliver thee into the hand of them whom thou hatest, &c.] The Chaldeans and Babylonians, before loved by her, and doted upon, but now hated and rebelled against; and to fall into such hands must be a sore judgment; and this the Lord threatens to bring upon the Jews for their sins; and he having said it, it might be depended upon it would be performed; and, for the greater certainty of it, it is repeated in different words: into the hand of them from whom thy mind is alienated; (see Gill on “<262317>Ezekiel 23:17”).
