The word that came to Jeremiah— We have here a new discourse, which reaches to the 13th chapter, wherein the prophet declaims against the vices of Judah and Jerusalem, particularly their hypocrisy and false confidence in their religious principles; delivering also some threats against Edom, Moab, Ammon, and the people of Arabia: see chap. Jeremiah 9:26. Jeremiah pronounced this discourse at the east gate of the temple, which led directly to it, before all the people who entered there. See Calmet.
