SEV Biblia, Chapter 47:5
Sobre Gaza vino mesadura, Ascalón fue cortada, y el resto de su valle; ¿hasta cuándo te arañarás?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 47:5
Verse 5. Baldness is come upon Gaza] They have cut off their hair in token of deep sorrow and distress. Ashkelon is cut off] Or put to silence; another mark of the deepest sorrow. Ashkelon was one of the five seignories of the Philistines, Gaza was another.
The remnant of their valley] Or plain; for the whole land of the Philistines was a vast plain, which extended along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea from Phoenicia to the frontiers of Egypt. The whole of this plain, the territory of the Philistines, shall be desolated.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The calamities of the Philistines.
The Philistines had always been enemies to Israel; but the Chaldea army shall overflow their land like a deluge. Those whom God wil spoil, must be spoiled. For when the Lord intends to destroy the wicked, he will cut off every helper. So deplorable are the desolation of war, that the blessings of peace are most desirable. But we mus submit to His appointments who ordains all in perfect wisdom an justice __________________________________________________________________
