Jeremiah 17:11 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Some naturalists have given this account of the Partridge. And it forms a striking representation of the man of riches brooding over his riches, which after all bring forth nothing but disappointment. See our Lord's account, Luke 12:16-21.

Jeremiah 17:11

11 As the partridge sittethd on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
