Jeremiah 25:33 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 25:33

And the slain of the Lord
Slain by his permission, yea, by his orders, according to his will, in his wrath and sore displeasure, and to glorify his vindictive justice: shall be at that day from [one] end of the earth even unto the [other]
end of the earth;
not that this should be at one and the same time; for there never was such a time, that there was such a general slaughter in the world, that the slain should reach from one end to the other; but that within the dispensation, in which the cup should go round to all nations, meant by "that day", the slain of the Lord would be in all parts of the world; or that, according to his will, there would be a great slaughter everywhere, as the cup went round, or the sword was sent, first ravaging one country, and then another; they shall not be lamented;
having no pity from their enemies; and as for their friends, they will share the same rite with them; so that there will be none to mourn over them: neither gathered;
taken up from the field of battle where they fall; but, where they should fall, there they should lie; none gathering up their bodies or bones, in order for interment: nor buried;
in the sepulchres of their fathers, nor indeed in any place, or in any manner; as not in any grand and magnificent manner, so not so much as in a common way; they shall be dung upon the ground;
spread upon it, and lie above it, as dung, to manure the earth.

Jeremiah 25:33 In-Context

31 pervenit sonitus usque ad extrema terrae quia iudicium Domino cum gentibus iudicatur ipse cum omni carne impios tradidit gladio dicit Dominus

32 haec dicit Dominus exercituum ecce adflictio egredietur de gente in gentem et turbo magnus egredietur a summitatibus terrae

33 et erunt interfecti Domini in die illa a summo terrae usque ad summum eius non plangentur et non colligentur neque sepelientur in sterquilinium super faciem terrae iacebunt

34 ululate pastores et clamate et aspergite vos cinere optimates gregis quia conpleti sunt dies vestri ut interficiamini et dissipationes vestrae et cadetis quasi vasa pretiosa

35 et peribit fuga a pastoribus et salvatio ab optimatibus gregis
