Jeremiah 48:47 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab “The Moabites were afterward restored to their country, as appears from Josephus, Antiq. lib. 13. c. 17. But these and similar promises of mercy after judgment are chiefly to be understood of the conversion of the Gentiles under the gospel, called the latter days in the prophets. The conversion of idolaters is expressed by returning from their captivity, Ezekiel 16:53.” Lowth. See also Calmet's Dissertation upon the return of the Moabites, &c.
