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 Like a lion coming up from the thickets of the Jordan against a perennial pasture, I will suddenly chase them away from her; and I will appoint over her whomever I choose. For who is like me? Who can summon me? Who is the shepherd who can stand before me?

45 Therefore hear the plan that the Lord has made against Babylon, and the purposes that he has formed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the little ones of the flock shall be dragged away; surely their fold shall be appalled at their fate.

46 At the sound of the capture of Babylon the earth shall tremble, and her cry shall be heard among the nations.
