Geremia 51:40 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 51:40

I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter
To the place of slaughter; who shall be able to make no more resistance than lambs. This explains what is meant by being made drunk, and sleeping a perpetual sleep, even destruction and death: like rams with he goats;
denoting the promiscuous destruction of the prince and common people together.

Geremia 51:40 In-Context

38 Essi ruggiranno assieme come leoni, grideranno come piccini di leonesse.
39 Quando saranno riscaldati, darò loro da bere, li inebrierò perché stiano allegri, e poi s’addormentino d’un sonno perpetuo, e non si risveglino più, dice l’Eterno.
40 Io li farò scendere al macello come agnelli, come montoni, come capri.
41 Come mai è stata presa Sceshac, ed è stata conquistata colei ch’era il vanto di tutta la terra? Come mai Babilonia è ella diventata una desolazione fra le nazioni?
42 Il mare è salito su Babilonia; essa è stata coperta dal tumulto de’ suoi flutti.
