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 I will be like a lion coming up from the bushes by the Jordan River. I will hunt in rich grasslands. I will chase the people of Babylon from their land in an instant. What nation will I choose to do it? Which one will I appoint? Is anyone like me? Who would dare to argue with me? What leader can stand against me?"
45 So listen to what the LORD has planned against Babylon. Hear what he has planned against the land of the Babylonians. Their young people will be dragged away. The LORD will completely destroy their grasslands because of them.
46 When the earth hears that Babylonia has been captured, it will shake. The people's cries will be heard among the nations.
