Jeremias 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.

Jeremias 18:21 In-Context

19 Atende-me, ó SENHOR;ouve o que os meus acusadores estão dizendo!
20 Acaso se paga o bem com o mal?Mas eles cavaram uma cova para mim.Lembra-te de que eu compareci diante de tipara interceder em favor deles,para que desviasses deles a tua ira.
21 Por isso entrega os filhos deles à fomee ao poder da espada.Que as suas mulheres fiquem viúvas e sem filhos;que os seus homens sejam mortos,e os seus rapazes sejam mortos à espada na batalha.
22 Seja ouvido o grito que vem de suas casas,quando repentinamente trouxeres invasores contra eles;pois cavaram uma cova para me capturareme esconderam armadilhas para os meus pés.
23 Mas tu conheces, ó SENHOR,todas as suas conspirações para me matarem.Não perdoes os seus crimesnem apagues de diante da tua vista os seus pecados.Sejam eles derrubados diante de ti;age contra eles na hora da tua ira!
