Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 48:19

_ _ Aroer — on the north bank of the Arnon, a city of Ammon (Deuteronomy 2:36; Deuteronomy 3:12). As it was on “the way” of the Moabites who fled into the desert, its inhabitants “ask” what is the occasion of Moab’s flight, and so learn the lot that awaits themselves (compare 1 Samuel 4:13, 1 Samuel 4:16).

Matthew Henry's Commentary
