Jeremiah 47:5
_ _ Baldness ... cut thyself — Palestine is represented as a female who has torn off her hair and cut her flesh, the heathenish (Leviticus 19:28) token of mourning (Jeremiah 48:37).
_ _ their valley — the long strip of low plain occupied by the Philistines along the Mediterranean, west of the mountains of Judea. The Septuagint reads Anakim, the remains of whom were settled in those regions (Numbers 13:28). Joshua dislodged them so that none were left but in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod (Joshua 11:21, Joshua 11:22). But the parallel (Jeremiah 47:7), “Ashkelon ... the sea-shore,” established English Version here, “Ashkelon ... their valley.” |

The remnant — Those who lived in the valleys near Ashkelon. But thyself — Why will you afflict yourselves, when all your mourning will do you no good. |
