Jeremiah 16:19 - Exposition

O Lord, my strength, and my fortress , etc. Jeremiah falls into the tone of the psalmists ( Psalms 18:2 ; Psalms 28:8 ; Psalms 59:17 ). All that is choicest and most permanent in Old Testament religion finds its adequate lyric expression in the Book of Psalms. The Gentiles shall some unto thee . The article, however, is not expressed. "Nations." i.e. a crowd of peoples, hitherto ignorant of the true God, shall hasten to the scene of Jehovah's great interposition; they have been convinced by Israel's unlooked-for restoration of the unique divinity of Jehovah.
