Jeremiah - 49:27 Meaning
“And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
49:23-27 How easily God can dispirit those nations that have been most celebrated for valour! Damascus waxes feeble. It was a city of joy, having all the delights of the sons of men. But those deceive themselves who place their happiness in carnal joys.
“Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and burn incense upon it?”
