Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Declare . . . publish—as if giving sentence from a tribunal.
Migdol . . . Noph . . . Tahpanhes—east, south, and north. He mentions the three other quarters, but omits the west, because the Chaldeans did not advance thither. These cities, too, were the best known to the Jews, as being in their direction.
sword shall devour round about thee—namely, the Syrians, Jews, Moabites, and Ammonites (see on Jeremiah 48:1). The exhortation is ironical, as in Jeremiah 46:4, Jeremiah 46:10, Jeremiah 46:15.
Prophecy of the invasion of Egypt by Nebuchadnezzar, which took place sixteen years after the taking of Jerusalem. Having spent thirteen years in the siege of Tyre, and having obtained nothing for his pains, he is promised by God Egypt for his reward in humbling Tyre (Ezekiel 29:17-20; Eze. 30:1-31:18). The intestine commotions between Amasis and Pharaoh-hophra prepared his way (compare Note, see on Isaiah 19:1, etc.).
