Bible Comments

For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.

Upon the throne of David - literally, for David on his throne (see note, Jeremiah 13:13). This verse is repeated substantially from Jeremiah 17:25.

His servants - so the Qeri'. But Kethibh, singular, 'his servant;' i:e., distributively, 'each with his servants;' Jeremiah 17:25, "their princes."

Jeremiah 22:4

4 For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
