Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 25:18

_ _ Jerusalem — put first: for “judgment begins at the house of God”; they being most guilty whose religious privileges are greatest (1 Peter 4:17).

_ _ kings — Jehoiakim, Jeconiah, and Zedekiah.

_ _ as it is this day — The accomplishment of the curse had already begun under Jehoiakim. This clause, however, may have been inserted by Jeremiah at his final revision of his prophecies in Egypt.
