Jeremiah 10:19 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it.

Woe is me for my hurt! Judea bewails its calamity. Wound - the stroke I suffer under.

I must bear - not humble submission to God's will (Micah 7:9), but sullen impenitence. Or, rather, it is prophetic of their ultimate acknowledgment of their guilt as the cause of their calamity (Lamentations 3:39).

Jeremiah 10:19

19 Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it.
