Jeremiah 51:32

Jer 51:32 And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.

Ver. 32. And that the passages are stopped. ] Or, Taken, seized, surprised. as Jer 48:41

And the reeds. ] Or, Marshes, made by Euphrates overflowing. It is well observed that the Babylonians might by this prophecy have been forewarned and forearmed against Cyrus’s stratagem; but they slighted it, and never inquired after it likely.
