Introduction
Among the nations doomed to suffer from the hostilities of Nebuchadnezzar are the Philistines, (see Jeremiah 25:20 .) And the calamities predicted in this chapter befell them probably during the long siege of Tyre, when their country was desolated to prevent their giving Tyre or Sidon any assistance, Jeremiah 47:1-5 . The whole of this chapter is remarkably elegant. The address to the sword of Jehovah, at the close of it, is particularly a very beautiful and bold personification, Jeremiah 47:6 , Jeremiah 47:7 .
