Jeremías 46:13 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 46:13

The word that the Lord spake to Jeremiah the prophet
This is a new and distinct prophecy from the former, though concerning Egypt as that; but in this they differ; the former prophecy respects only the overthrow of the Egyptian army at a certain place; this latter the general destruction of the land; and was fulfilled some years after the other; Jarchi says, according to their chronicles ^F7, in the twenty seventh year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign: how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come;
or, "concerning the coming ^F8 of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon", to smite the land of Egypt;
who was to come, and did come, out of his country, into the land of Egypt, to smite the inhabitants of it with the sword, take their cities, plunder them of their substance, and make them tributary to him.

Jeremías 46:13 In-Context

11 »¡Virginal hija de Egipto,ve a Galaad y consigue bálsamo!En vano multiplicas los remedios;ya no sanarás.

12 Las naciones ya saben de tu humillación;tus gritos llenan la tierra.Un guerrero tropieza contra otro,y juntos caen por tierra».

13 Esta es la palabra del SEÑOR, que vino a Jeremías el profeta cuando Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, vino para atacar el país de Egipto:

14 «Anuncien esto en Egipto,proclámenlo en Migdol, Menfis y Tafnes:“¡A sus puestos! ¡Manténganse alerta!¡La espada devora a su alrededor!”

15 ¿Por qué yacen postrados tus guerreros?¡No pueden mantenerse en pie,porque el SEÑOR los ha derribado!
