Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
They regard not the works of the Lord - They have no knowledge of the true God, either as to his nature, or as to his works.
He shall destroy them, and not build them up - This is a remarkable prophecy, and was literally fulfilled: the Babylonian empire was destroyed by Cyrus, and never built up again; for he founded the Persian empire on its ruins. haven the place where Babylon stood is now no longer known.
