Jeremiah 48:45
_ _ under ... shadow of Heshbon — They thought that they would be safe in Heshbon.
_ _ because of the force — that is, “they that fled because of the force” of the enemy: they that fled from it. Glassius translates, “through want of strength.” So the Hebrew particle is translated (Psalms 109:24), “faileth of fatness,” that is, “faileth through want of fatness”; also Lamentations 4:9.
_ _ but a fire, etc. — copied in part from Sihon’s hymn of victory (Numbers 21:27, Numbers 21:28). The old “proverb” shall hold good again. As in ancient times Sihon, king of the Amorites, issued forth from his city, Heshbon, as a devouring “flame” and consumed Moab, so now the Chaldeans, making Heshbon their starting-point, shall advance to the destruction of Moab.
_ _ midst of Sihon — that is, the city of Sihon.
_ _ corner of Moab — that is, Moab from one corner to the other.
_ _ crown of ... head — the most elevated points of Moab. Making some alterations, he here copies Balaam’s prophecy (Numbers 24:17). Margin there translates “princes” for corners; if so, “crown of ... head” here refers to the nobles.
_ _ tumultuous ones — sons of tumult; those who have tumultuously revolted from Babylon. Heshbon passed from the Amorite to the Israelite sway. Moab had wrested it from Israel and helped the Chaldeans against the Jews; but revolting from Babylon, they brought ruin on themselves in turn. |
Jeremiah 48:45
Heshbon — Heshbon was it seems a place of force. The crown — That is, the glory. |
Jeremiah 48:45
They that fled stood under the shadow (z) of Heshbon because of the force: but (a) a fire shall come out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
(z) They fled there thinking to have comfort from the Amorites.
(a) The Amorites had destroyed the Moabites in times past, and now because of their power the Moabites will seek them for help. |
- a fire:
Numbers 21:28 For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon: it hath consumed Ar of Moab, [and] the lords of the high places of Arnon.
Amos 2:2 But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kerioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, [and] with the sound of the trumpet:

Numbers 24:17 I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
Zechariah 10:4 Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together.
Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
