Jeremias 48:40 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 48:40

For thus saith the Lord, behold, he shall fly as an eagle,
&c.] The enemy, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, with his army; who is compared to an eagle for his strength, swiftness, and greediness after the prey: and shall spread his wings over Moab;
as an eagle spreads its wings, which are very large, over the little birds it seizes upon as its prey; so the king of Babylon would bring a numerous army against Moab, and spread it over his country. The Targum is,

``behold, as all eagle which flies, so a king shall come up with his army, and encamp against Moab.''

Jeremias 48:40 In-Context

38 Sobre todos os eirados de Moabe e nas suas ruas há um pranto geral; porque quebrei a Moabe, como a um vaso que não agrada, diz o Senhor.
39 Como está quebrantrado! como uivam! como virou Moabe as costas envergonhado! assim se tornou Moabe objeto de escárnio e de espanto para todos os que estão em redor dele.
40 Pois assim diz o Senhor: Eis que alguém voará como a águia, e estenderá as suas asas contra Moabe.
41 Tomadas serão as cidades, e ocupadas as fortalezas; e naquele dia será o coração dos valentes de Moabe como o coração da mulher em suas dores de parto.
42 E Moabe será destruído, para que não seja povo, porque se engrandeceu contra o Senhor.
