Jeremías 18:21

Listen to Jeremías 18:21

Jeremías 18:21 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 18:21

Therefore deliver up their children to the famine
To be starved, and perish by it, as they were in the siege of Jerusalem, both by the Chaldeans, and the Romans: and pour out their [blood] by the force of the sword:
or, "upon the hands of the sword" F6; by means of it; that is, the blood of the parents of the children; let the one perish by famine, and the other by the sword; which, when thrust into a man, blood gushes out, and runs upon the sword to the handle of it: and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and [be] widows;
let them have neither husbands nor children; which latter might be a comfort to them, when they had lost their husbands; but being stripped of these also, the affliction and distress must be the greater: and let their men be put to death;
or "slain with death" F7; with the pestilence, as Kimchi rightly interprets it; see ( Revelation 6:8 ) ; Jarchi understands it of the angel of death; see ( Hebrews 2:14 ) ; [let] their young men [be] slain by the sword in battle;
such being commonly employed in military service, as being the most proper persons for it.

Jeremías 18:21 In-Context

19 SEÑOR, mira por mí, y oye la voz de los que contienden conmigo
20 ¿Se da por ventura mal por bien para que caven hoyo a mi alma? Acuérdate que me puse delante de ti para hablar bien por ellos, para apartar de ellos tu ira
21 Por tanto, entrega sus hijos a hambre, y hazlos escurrir por manos de espada; y queden sus mujeres sin hijos, y viudas; y sus maridos sean puestos a muerte, y sus jóvenes heridos a espada en la guerra
22 Oigase clamor de sus casas, cuando trajeres sobre ellos ejército de repente; porque cavaron hoyo para tomarme, y a mis pies han escondido lazos
23 Mas tú, oh SEÑOR, conoces todo su consejo contra mí que es para muerte; no perdones su iniquidad, ni borres su pecado de delante de tu rostro, y tropiecen delante de ti; haz así con ellos en el tiempo de tu furor
