Jeremiah 48:9 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Give wings unto Moab... — “No other prayer,” the prophet seems to say, in grave, stern irony, “is left but this. Resistance is hopeless. There is nothing left but to wish for the wings of a bird that safety may be found in flight.” (Comp. Ps. Iv. 6.)

Jeremiah 48:9

9 Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
