Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 21:14

_ _ fruit of your doings — (Proverbs 1:31; Isaiah 3:10, Isaiah 3:11).

_ _ forest thereof — namely of your city, taken from Jeremiah 21:13. “Forest” refers to the dense mass of houses built of cedar, etc., brought from Lebanon (Jeremiah 22:7; Jeremiah 52:13; 2 Kings 25:9).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 21:8-14.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Jeremiah 21:14

The forest — By the forest he either means the forest of Lebanon or their houses, made of wood cut out of that forest. And it — And this fire shall not end in the destruction of this city, but in the total destruction of all the country round Jerusalem.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes
