Of thy strangers; either,
1. Of the strangers that encamp and fight against thee. Or,
2. Of the Egyptians, and other strangers, whom thou hast hired to assist thee, as indeed they did, when the Chaldeans came against them. This exposition seems to agree best, as with the phrase, thy strangers, so with the scope of the place, and with the whole context, especially the foregoing verses; which plainly shows that this is not a promise to Jerusalem, but a threatening against it. Like small dust; quickly blown away with the least wind, by comparing this with the following clause. Of the terrible ones; of thy great commanders and stoutest soldiers. It shall be; this dissipation and destruction of thy strangers and terrible ones shall come to pass.
