Jeremiah 44:28 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

This justifieth the restrained interpretation of none of the remnant, Jeremiah 44:14; for here it is plainly said that some should escape and return; but for the rest, they should there perish, and by that it would appear whether God's word or theirs should stand, and have its accomplishment; they promising themselves security, God threatening them with utter ruin and destruction.

Jeremiah 44:28

28 Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or theirs.f
