2 Chronicles 36:16 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 36:16

But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words,
&c.] Which was the treatment Jeremiah and Ezekiel frequently met with:

and misused his prophets;
imprisoned them, as Micaiah and Jeremiah were:

until the wrath of the Lord arose against his people;
which burned like fire in his breast, and broke out to the consumption of them:

till there was no remedy;
or healing of them; there was no reclaiming or recovering of them, no bringing them to repentance, and no pardon for them.

2 Chronicles 36:16 In-Context

14 sed et universi principes sacerdotum et populus praevaricati sunt inique iuxta universas abominationes gentium et polluerunt domum Domini quam sanctificaverat sibi in Hierusalem

15 mittebat autem Dominus Deus patrum suorum ad illos per manum nuntiorum suorum de nocte consurgens et cotidie commonens eo quod parceret populo et habitaculo suo

16 at illi subsannabant nuntios Dei et parvipendebant sermones eius inludebantque prophetis donec ascenderet furor Domini in populum eius et esset nulla curatio

17 adduxit enim super eos regem Chaldeorum et interfecit iuvenes eorum gladio in domo sanctuarii sui non est misertus adulescentis et virginis et senis nec decrepiti quidem sed omnes tradidit manibus eius

18 universaque vasa domus Domini tam maiora quam minora et thesauros templi et regis et principum transtulit in Babylonem
