Jeremiah 50:46 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 50:46

At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved
It being so sudden and unexpected, and so very astonishing: and the cry is heard among the nations;
that Babylon is fallen; which, as applied to mystical Babylon, will be matter of joy to some, and of lamentation to others; see ( Revelation 14:8 ) ( Revelation 18:2 Revelation 18:9-19 ) .

Jeremiah 50:46 In-Context

44 "It will be like a lion coming up from the thickets of the Yarden against a strong settlement; in an instant I will chase him away and appoint over it whomever I choose. For who is like me? Who can call me to account? What shepherd can stand up to me?"

45 So hear the plan of ADONAI that he has devised against Bavel, and his goals that he will accomplish against the land of the Kasdim: the least of the flock will drag them away; their own pasture will be in shock at them.

46 At the sound of Bavel's capture the earth quakes; their cry is heard throughout the nations.
