Jeremiah 46:15 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The prophet first propoundeth a question, then returneth answer to himself. Egypt was full of valiant men, yet, saith the prophet, they shall be swept away, or broken down, as fruit or grass is beaten down with a violent storm of hail (so the word is used, Proverbs 28:3). How comes this to pass? (saith the prophet). He answereth himself; Because it was of God to destroy Egypt, who worketh, and none can let him; when he strikes, none can stand before him; none can stand up against him.

Jeremiah 46:15

15 Why are thy valiant men swept away? they stood not, because the LORD did drive them.
