2 "Therefore behold , the days are coming ," declares the Lord , "That I will cause a trumpet blast of war to be heard Against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon ; And it will become a desolate heap , And her towns will be set on fire . Then Israel will take possession of his possessors ," Says the Lord .
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Jeremiah 49:2
Commentary on Jeremiah 49:1-6
(Read Jeremiah 49:1-6)
Might often prevails against right among men, yet that might shall be controlled by the Almighty, who judges aright; and those will find themselves mistaken, who, like the Ammonites, think every thing their own on which they can lay their hands. The Lord will call men to account for every instance of dishonesty, especially to the destitute.
