Jeremiah 48:2
_ _ no more praise — (Isaiah 16:14).
_ _ in Heshbon — The foe having taken Heshbon, the chief city of Moab (Jeremiah 48:45), in it devise evil against Moab (“it”) saying, Come, etc. Heshbon was midway between the rivers Arnon and Jabbok; it was the residence of Sihon, king of the Amorites, and afterwards a Levitical city in Gad (Numbers 21:26). There is a play on words in the Hebrew, “Heshbon, Hashbu.” Heshbon means a place of devising or counsel. The city, heretofore called the seat of counsel, shall find other counselors, namely, those who devise its destruction.
_ _ thou shall be cut down ... Madmen — rather, by a play on words on the meaning of madmen (“silence”), Thou shalt be brought to silence, so as well to deserve thy name (Isaiah 15:1). Thou shalt not dare to utter a sound. |
Jeremiah 48:2
Heshbon — Heshbon was one of the principal cities of the Moabites. Probably the enemies sat there in counsel, when they had taken it, against the other parts of the country. |
