I will put it into the heart of all those kings whose territories lie northward of Judea, and particularly into the heart of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, who in this work shall be my servant; though you will not be my servants in obeying my commands, yet he shall serve me, Jeremiah 27:6, Jeremiah 43:10. I will bring them and their armies up against this people, and I will put you out of hopes from your alliances with other nations, for he shall first bring them under his command: thus we read, 2 Kings 24:7, that the king of Babylon had invaded the Egyptian dominions, and taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt. And I will make the inhabitants of Jerusalem, not only a desolation, but a scorn, and reproach, and wonderment to the world. See Jeremiah 19:8.
