Geremia 51:40 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 51:40

I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter
To the place of slaughter; who shall be able to make no more resistance than lambs. This explains what is meant by being made drunk, and sleeping a perpetual sleep, even destruction and death: like rams with he goats;
denoting the promiscuous destruction of the prince and common people together.

Geremia 51:40 In-Context

38 Essi ruggeranno tutti insieme come leoncelli, fremeranno come leoncini di leonesse.
39 Io farò che i lor conviti si riscalderanno nel modo usato, e li farò inebbriare, acciocchè facciano gran festa, e dormano un eterno sonno, senza risvegliarsi mai, dice il Signore.
40 Io li farò scendere al macello, come agnelli, come montoni, e becchi.
41 Come è stata presa Sesac, ed è stata occupata colei ch’era il vanto di tutta la terra? come è stata ridotta Babilonia in istupore fra le genti?
42 Il mare è salito sopra Babilonia, ella è stata coperta con la moltitudine delle sue onde.
