This is a common literary techinque of Scripture for a writer to give speech to a place or thing that normally does not have speech (See Isaiah 14:7,8; 1 Cor. 12:15,16). This is called personification. So the prophet Jeremiah is giving speech to the city of Jerusalem. And Jerusalem is agonizing over the consequences of her rebellion. Her main enemy is Babylon. And she is now praying harm on them, which prayer the Lord eventually answers after Jerusalem's 70 year captivity (See Jer. 25:12). Grace to you. Student 7300 |
