The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.

A: M. 3399. B.C. 605. The word.; This discourse is supposed to have been delivered after the fourth year of Jehoiakim. The Hebrew {batzaroth,} rendered dearth, signifies restraint, that is, "when the heaven is shut up that there is no rain;" which Houbigant thinks happened early in the reign of Zedekiah.
the dearth: Hebrew the words of the dearths, or restraints.; 17:8
