Jeremiah 50:31 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Babylon is particularly branded for pride, which is the swelling of a man's heart in a self-opinion, caused from something wherein he excelleth, or thinks that he excelleth, another, We have a large account of the pride of Babylon Isaiah 14:12-14, and particularly of one of their kings, Daniel 5:20,21. The sinner exalteth himself against God, and either judgeth himself wiser or moro mighty than he.

Jeremiah 50:31

31 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee.
