Jeremiah 6:9 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

They ... - Each word indicates the completeness of Judah’s ruin.

Turn back thine hand - Addressed perhaps to Nebuchadnezzar as God’s servant Jeremiah 25:9. He is required to go over the vine once again, that no grapes may escape.

Into the baskets - Better, “upon the tendrils.” While the Jews carried captive to Babylon escaped, misery gleaned the rest again and again.

Jeremiah 6:9

9 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall throughly glean the remnant of Israel as a vine: turn back thine hand as a grapegatherer into the baskets.
