The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
He begins with Egypt, being the country to which he had been removed. Jeremiah 46:1-28 contains two prophecies concerning it-the discomfiture of Pharaoh-necho at Carchemish, by Nebuchadnezzar, and the long subsequent conquest of Egypt by the same king; also the preservation of the Jews (Jeremiah 46:27-28).
General heading of the next six chapters of prophecies concerning the Gentiles. The prophecies are arranged according to nations, not by the dates.
