Jeremías 50:39 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 50:39

Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts
of the islands shall dwell [there]
Of these creatures (See Gill on Isaiah 13:21); and (See Gill on Isaiah 13:22); and the owls shall dwell therein;
so mystical Babylon when fallen shall become the habitation of devils, the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird, ( Revelation 18:2 ) ; and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt
in from generation to generation;
interpreters observe that this was gradually accomplished: it was taken by Cyrus, and made tributary to the Persians; the seat of the empire was removed from it; its walls were demolished by Darius; it was drained both of its inhabitants and its riches through Seleucus Nicator building the city Seleucia F18 near it. In Adrian's time there was nothing but an old wall left; and in Jerom's time it was a park for the king of Persia to hunt in; (See Gill on Jeremiah 50:13); and (See Gill on Isaiah 13:20);

Jeremías 50:39 In-Context

37 La espada golpeará sus caballos, sus carros de guerra
y a sus aliados de otras tierras,
y todos se volverán como mujeres.
La espada golpeará sus tesoros
y todos serán saqueados.
38 La espada golpeará aun el suministro de agua
y hará que se seque.
¿Y por qué? Porque toda la tierra está llena de ídolos
y la gente está locamente enamorada de ellos.
39 »Pronto Babilonia será habitada por hienas y animales del desierto.
Será un hogar de búhos.
Nunca más vivirá gente allí;
quedará desolada para siempre.
40 La destruiré tal como yo
destruí a Sodoma, a Gomorra
y a sus ciudades vecinas —dice el Señor
—.
Nadie vivirá allí;
nadie la habitará.
41 »¡Miren! Un gran ejército viene del norte.
Desde tierras lejanas se están levantando contra ti
una gran nación y muchos reyes.
