Jeremiah 51:35 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

The violence done to me and to my flesh... — The imagery of the “dragon” or “crocodile” is continued. The “inhabitress of Zion” pleads that her “flesh” and “blood” have been devoured by the Babylonian conqueror, and asks for the application of the law of retribution.

Jeremiah 51:35

35 The violenceh done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.
