Listen to Geremia 49:22

Geremia 49:22 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 49:22

Behold, he shall come up, and fly as the eagle
The Targum is,

``behold, as an eagle comes up and flies, so shall a king come up with his army;''
the king of Babylon with his army, compared to an eagle for his swiftness and voraciousness, as before to a lion for his strength and fierceness: and spread his wings over Bozrah;
besiege that city, invest it, and seize upon it; very fitly are the wings of an army expressed by the wings of this bird, denoting both their extent and force; the same is said concerning Moab, ( Jeremiah 48:40 ) ; and at that day shall the heart of the mighty men of Moab be as the
heart of a woman in her pangs;
when just ready to be delivered; not only weak and timorous, but full of anguish, and: quite dispirited; (See Gill on Jeremiah 48:41).

Geremia 49:22 In-Context

20 Perciò, ascoltate il disegno che l’Eterno ha concepito contro Edom, e i pensieri che medita contro gli abitanti di Teman! Certo, saran trascinati via come i più piccoli del gregge, certo, la loro dimora sarà devastata.
21 Al rumore della loro caduta trema la terra; s’ode il loro grido fino al mar Rosso.
22 Ecco, il nemico sale, fende l’aria, come l’aquila, spiega le sue ali verso Botsra; e il cuore dei prodi d’Edom, in quel giorno, è come il cuore d’una donna in doglie di parto.
23 Riguardo a Damasco. Hamath e Arpad sono confuse, poiché hanno udito una cattiva notizia; vengon meno; è un’agitazione come quella del mare, che non può calmarsi.
24 Damasco divien fiacca, si volta per fuggire, un tremito l’ha còlta; angoscia e dolori si sono impadroniti di lei, come di donna che partorisce.
