Jeremias 21:9 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 21:9

He that abideth in this city
Imagining himself safe there; not fearing its being taken by the king of Babylon; though it was so often foretold by the prophet of the Lord that it should: shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence:
by the first of these, in sallying out against the enemy; and by the other two, which raged within the city: but he that goeth out, and falleth to the Chaldeans that besiege you,
he shall live;
not fall upon them, as the words may be literally rendered; so it would describe such that went out of the city and sallied upon them; whereas it designs such who should go out of the city, and surrender themselves unto the Chaldeans; submit to them, so as to obey them, as the Targum adds; such shall have their lives spared: and his life shall be unto him for a prey;
it shall be like a spoil or booty taken out of an enemy's hands; it shall be with difficulty obtained, and with joy possessed, as a prey or spoil is.

Jeremias 21:9 In-Context

7 Depois disso’, declara o SENHOR, ‘entregarei Zedequias, rei de Judá, seus conselheiros e o povo desta cidade que sobreviver à peste, à espada e à fome nas mãos de Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, nas mãos dos inimigos deles e daqueles que querem tirar-lhes a vida. Ele os matará à espada sem piedade nem misericórdia; não terá deles nenhuma compaixão’.
8 “Digam a este povo: Assim diz o SENHOR: ‘Ponho diante de vocês o caminho da vida e o caminho da morte.
9 Todo aquele que ficar nesta cidade morrerá pela espada, pela fome ou pela peste. Mas todo o que sair e render-se aos babilônios, que cercam vocês, viverá; esse escapará com vida.
10 Decidi fazer o mal e não o bem a esta cidade’, diz o SENHOR. ‘Ela será entregue nas mãos do rei da Babilônia, e ele a incendiará’.
11 “Digam à casa real de Judá: Ouçam a palavra do SENHOR.
