Jeremiah 4:5 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, Blow ye the trumpet in the land: cry, gather together, and say, Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the defenced cities.

Cry, gather together - rather 'cry, fully,' i:e., loudly [qir'uw mal'uw] - literally, 'cry, fill.' The Jews are warned to take measures against the impending Chaldean invasion (cf. Jeremiah 8:14).
