Jeremiah 48:19

O inhabitant of Aroer ,.... Another city that belonged to Moab, situated on the border of it towards Ammon, near the river Arnon; See Gill on Isaiah 17:2 ;

stand by the way, and espy ; get to the road side where travellers pass, and look out for them:

ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth ; whether man or woman you see fleeing, having escaped the army of the Chaldeans:

and say, what is done ? by the Chaldeans; ask what cities they have taken; what progress they have made; what is done to their cities, that they flee from them? tell all the particulars of things.
