Jeremiah 27:10 KJV

For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.

Matthew Henry

  • The neighbouring nations to be subduedJeremiah is to prepare a sign that all the neighbouring countries would be made subject to the king of Babylon. God asserts his right to dispose of kingdoms...
