PROPHECIES ON THE OCCASION OF A DROUGHT SENT IN JUDGMENT ON JUDEA. (Jer. 14:1-22)
Literally, "That which was the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah concerning the dearth"
drought—literally, the "withholdings," namely, of rain (Deuteronomy 11:17; II Chronicles 7:13). This word should be used especially of the withholding of rain because rain is in those regions of all things the one chiefly needed (Jeremiah 17:8, Margin).
