Context of Jeremiah 25:13
11This whole land shall become a ruin and a waste, and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years. 12Then after seventy years are completed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their iniquity, declares the Lord, making the land an everlasting waste. I will bring upon that land all the words that I have uttered against it, everything written in this book, which Jeremiah prophesied against all the nations. 14For many nations and great kings shall make slaves even of them, and I will recompense them according to their deeds and the work of their hands." 15Thus the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me: "Take from my hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it.

Commentaries on Jeremiah 25:13
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 13The Septuagint places a full stop after “book,” and take the rest as a title “what Jeremiah prophesied against the nations,” which series there immediately follows. In the Masoretic Text, this series is deferred to the end Jeremiah 4649, and with Jeremiah 5051, forms one entire series. Other reasons make it probable that the Septuagint has preserved for us an earlier text, in which all direct mention of the king of Babylon is omitted and the 70 years are…Read the comment
- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 8-14Verses 8-14 The fixing of the time during which the Jewish captivity should last, would not only confirm the prophecy, but also comfort the people of God, and encourage faith and prayer.

When the set time to favour Zion is come, Babylon shall be punished for their iniquity, as other nations have been punished for their sins. Every threatening of the…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 12-14The Lord used the Babylonians to judge Judah, but they would face consequences for their sins, brutality, and abuse of the defeated. In 539 BC, Cyrus the Persian conquered Babylon, and the people went into captivity. For centuries, many nations and great kings enslaved the Babylonians. The territory did not regain independence until 1932, becoming modern Iraq.Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1313. all ... written in this book, which Jeremiah ... prophesied against all ... nations--It follows from this, that the prophecies against foreign nations (forty-sixth through fifty-first chapters) must have been already written. Hence the Septuagint inserts here those prophecies. But if they had followed immediately (Jr 25:13), there would have been no propriety in the observation in the verse. The very wording of the reference shows that they existed in…Read the comment
