Jeremiah 6:28
_ _ grievous revolters — literally, “contumacious of the contumacious,” that is, most contumacious, the Hebrew mode of expressing a superlative. So “the strong among the mighty,” that is, the strongest (Ezekiel 32:21). See Jeremiah 5:23; Hosea 4:16.
_ _ walking with slanders — (Jeremiah 9:4). “Going about for the purpose of slandering” [Maurer].
_ _ brass, etc. — that is, copper. It and “iron” being the baser and harder metals express the debased and obdurate character of the Jews (Isaiah 48:4; Isaiah 60:17). |

Jeremiah 20:10 For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, [say they], and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my halting, [saying], Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
Psalms 50:20 Thou sittest [and] speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.
