Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 49:39

_ _ latter days — The full restoration belongs to gospel times. Elamites were among the first who heard and accepted it (Acts 2:9).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 49:34-39.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Jeremiah 49:39

But — We had the like promise as to Moab, Jeremiah 48:47, and as to Ammon, Jeremiah 49:6, the same latter days either signify after many days, or in the time of the Messiah. In the former sense it may refer to Cyrus, who conquered Persia. In the latter sense it refers to the spiritual liberty which some of these poor Heathens were brought into by the gospel. We read Acts 2:9, that some of the Elamites were at Jerusalem at pentecost, and were some of those converted to Christ.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Jeremiah 49:39

But it shall come to pass (k) in the latter days, [that] I will bring again the captives of Elam, saith the LORD.

(k) This may be referred to the empire of the Persians and Medes after the Chaldeans or to the time of Christ, as in (Jeremiah 48:47).
