Jeremiah 4:18 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Thy way and thy doings Thy manner of life, and particularly thy idolatries; have procured these things unto thee Have been the causes of this thy grievous affliction, of bringing such a bitter enemy against thee, which hath reached unto thy very heart. “Whatsoever happens to you,” says Jerome on the place, “happens by your own fault, who have turned the sweet goodness of God into bitterness, and have compelled him, however unwilling, to rage against you.”
