Jeremias 12:10 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 12:10

Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard
This is a metaphor which is often used of the people of Israel and Judah; see ( Psalms 80:8 ) ( Isaiah 5:1-7 ) ( 27:2 ) , the pastors that destroyed them are not their own governors, civil or religious, but Heathen princes, Nebuchadnezzar and his generals. So the Targum paraphrases it,

``many kings slay my people;''
so Kimchi and Ben Melech. They have trodden my portion under foot;
the people of the Jews, that were his portion, and before called his heritage; whom the Chaldeans subdued, and reduced to extreme servitude and bondage; and were as the dirt under their feet, greatly oppressed and despised. They have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness;
by pulling down stately edifices, unwalling of towers, and destroying men; so that there were none to manure the fields, to dress the vineyards, and keep gardens and orchards in good case; but all were come to ruin and what before was a delightful paradise was now like an heath or desert.

Jeremias 12:10 In-Context

8 O povo de minha propriedade tornou-se para mimcomo um leão na floresta.Ele ruge contra mim,por isso eu o detesto.
9 O povo de minha propriedade tornou-se para mimcomo uma toca de hiena,sobre a qual pairam as aves de rapina.Reúnam todos os animais selvagens;tragam-nos para o banquete.
10 A minha vinha foi destruída por muitos pastores,que pisotearam a minha propriedade.Eles tornaram a minha preciosa propriedadenum deserto devastado.
11 Fizeram dela uma terra devastada;e devastada ela pranteia diante de mim.A terra toda foi devastada,mas não há quem se importe com isso.
12 Destruidores vieram sobre todasas planícies do deserto,pois a espada dodevora esta terra de uma extremidade à outra;ninguém está seguro.
