Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 51:59-64.


Jeremiah 51:64

_ _ they shall be weary — The Babylonians shall be worn out, so as not to be able to recover their strength.

_ _ Thus far ... Jeremiah — Hence it is to be inferred that the last chapter is not included in Jeremiah’s writings but was added by some inspired man, mainly at 2 Kings 24:18-25:30 to explain and confirm what precedes [Calvin].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 51:59-64.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Jeremiah 51:64

Weary — With that weight of judgment which shall be upon them. The words — The prophetical words of Jeremiah; for the matter of the next chapter is historical, and the book of Lamentations is not prophetical.
