Jeremiah 2:10
_ _ pass over the isles — rather, “cross over to the isles.”
_ _ Chittim ... Kedar — that is, the heathen nations, west and east. Go where you will, you cannot find an instance of any heathen nation forsaking their own for other gods. Israel alone does this. Yet the heathen gods are false gods; whereas Israel, in forsaking Me for other gods, forsake their “glory” for unprofitable idols.
_ _ Chittim — Cyprus, colonized by Phoenicians, who built in it the city of Citium, the modern Chitti. Then the term came to be applied to all maritime coasts of the Mediterranean, especially Greece (Numbers 24:24; Isaiah 23:1; Daniel 11:30).
_ _ Kedar — descended from Ishmael; the Bedouins and Arabs, east of Palestine. |
Jeremiah 2:10
Of Chittim — All the isles in the Mediterranean sea, with the neighbouring coasts; for the Hebrews call all people, that separated from them by the sea, islanders, because they came to them by shipping. Kedar — Arabia that lay east — south — east of Judea, as Chittim did more north or north — west; go from north to south, east to west, and make the experiment; look to Chittim the most civilized, or Kedar the most barbarous, yet neither have changed their gods. |
Jeremiah 2:10
For pass over the isles of (o) Chittim, and see; and send to (p) Kedar, and consider diligently, and see if there is such a thing.
(o) Meaning, the Grecians and Italians.
(p) To Arabia. |
