Jeremiah 2:24 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

A wild ass — Another similitude for the more lively description of the same thing. The wind — This creature, by the wind, smells afar off which way her male is. In her occasion — That is, when she has an occasion to run impetuously to her male, she bears down all opposition. In her month — Perhaps the sense is, though Jerusalem be now madly bent upon going after her idols, that there is no stopping her, yet the time may come, in their afflictions, that they may grow more tame, and willing to receive counsel.
