Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 22:22

_ _ wind — the Chaldees, as a parching wind that sweeps over rapidly and withers vegetation (Jeremiah 4:11, Jeremiah 4:12; Psalms 103:16; Isaiah 40:7).

_ _ eat up ... pastors — that is, thy kings (Jeremiah 2:8). There is a happy play on words. The pastors, whose office it is to feed the sheep, shall themselves be fed on. They who should drive the flock from place to place for pasture shall be driven into exile by the Chaldees.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 22:20-30.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Jeremiah 22:22

Pastors — Thy rulers and governors, they shall be blasted by my judgments, as plants are blasted by winds. Thy lovers — And those that have been thy friends, Syria and Egypt.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Jeremiah 22:22

The wind shall eat up all thy shepherds, (p) and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness.

(p) Both your governors and they that would help you will vanish away as wind.
