Bible Comments

For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more.

As mine anger ... hath been poured forth upon ... Jerusalem. As ye have already to your sorrow, found me true to my word, so shall ye again (Jeremiah 7:20; Jeremiah 18:16).

Ye shall see this place no more - ye shah not return to Judea, as those shall who have been removed to Babylon.
