Commentaries

Matthew Henry's Commentary

52:1-11 This fruit of sin we should pray against above any thing; Cast me not away from thy presence, Ps 51:11. None are cast out of God's presence but those who by sin have first thrown themselves out. Zedekiah's flight was in vain, for there is no escaping the judgments of God; they come upon the sinner, and overtake him, let him flee where he will.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown

9. gave judgment upon him—as guilty of rebellion and perjury (Jer 52:3; compare Eze 23:24).
