Jeremiah 48:24 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:24

And upon Kerioth
Which once belonged to the tribe of Judah, ( Joshua 15:25 ) ; from this place Judas Iscariot is by some thought to have his name; as if it was "Ish Kerioth", "a man of Kerioth". Grotius takes it to be the Goiratha of Ptolemy: and upon Bozrah;
not in Idumea, but in Moab; the same with Bezer, ( Joshua 21:36 ) ; and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, for and near;
all the rest of the cities not named, whether nearer or farther off from Aroer.

Jeremiah 48:24 In-Context

22 and on Divon, and on Nevo, and on Beit-Divlatayim,

23 and on Kiryatayim, and on Beit-Gamul, and on Beit-Me`on,

24 and on Keriyot, and on Botzrah, and on all the cities of the land of Mo'av, far or near.

25 The horn of Mo'av is cut off, and his arm is broken, says the LORD.

26 Make you him drunken; for he magnified himself against the LORD: and Mo'av shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
