Jeremiah 48:42 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the LORD. Moab shall be destroyed from being a people - They shall not have a king or civil governor: and I doubt whether there be any evidence that they were ever reinstated in their national character. They were captivated by the Chaldeans; and probably many returned with the Jews on the edict of Cyrus: but as to their being an independent nation after this, where is the positive proof?
