They therefore rather think it penned by some or other of those in Babylon, and put in here as a preface to the Book of Lamentations. What we have in the three first verses is entirely taken out of <span class='bible'>2Ki 24:18-20<\/span>. See the notes there. <\/P> <P>Here the wicked actions of Zedekiah, and particularly his rebellion against the king of Babylon, who had made him king, as <span class='bible'>2Ki 24:17<\/span>, and to whom he had given an oath of fealty, is ascribed to <I>the wrath of the Lord<\/I>; God not putting any such wickedness into his heart, but suffering him so to miscarry, having a design to send Judah into captivity. Princes are often by God suffered to miscarry for the sins of their people, which should oblige us, when we think we have cause to complain of the errors of our rulers, to consider whether we have not by some sinful courses provoked God, which hath made him leave our rulers so to miscarry in order to our ruin and punishment. <\/P> <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: English Annotations on the Holy Bible by Matthew Poole<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p><P><B>3. through . . . anger of . . .

According to our version the sense is, that because of the anger of the Lord for the sins of the Jews, God suffered Zedekiah to rebel against the king of Babylon, that so he might be provoked to come against them, and take vengeance on them; or for his former sins he suffered him to fall into this, to his own and his people&#8217;s ruin.<\/p>\n<p>n     &#8220;nam praeter iram Jehovae, quae fuit contra Hierosolymam&#8221;, Schmidt.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: John Gill&#8217;s Exposition of the Entire Bible<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p><strong><em><span class='bible'>Jer 52:3<\/span><\/em><\/strong><strong>. <\/strong><strong><em>For through the anger of the Lord, <\/em><\/strong><strong>&amp;c.<\/strong> <em>For it was so because of the anger of <\/em>JEHOVAH <em>against Judah and Jerusalem. <\/em>The particle  <em>ki, <\/em>is here causal, and assigns a reason for what went before; namely, why Zedekiah succeeded Jehoiakim in the throne. This happened, it is said, &#8220;because of the anger of JEHOVAH;&#8221; not that JEHOVAH instigated either them or any man else to do wickedly; but it was of his special order and appointment, for the punishment of a wicked people, that men of such perverse and evil dispositions were advanced to be their kings. For having determined, as it is said, <span class=''>2Ki 21:11-16<\/span> to execute a signal vengeance upon Judah and Jerusalem for the very heinous provocations that he had received during the reign of Manasseh, he first of all removed the good Josiah out of the way, from respect to whose piety he would not bring the evil in his days, and thus opened the succession to his sons, the badness of whose principles favoured the designs of God&#8217;s justice, and led them to pursue measures equally fatal to themselves and their country. For hence it flowed, that to their other wicked and sinful actions they added one no less impolitic than profligate, that of rebelling against a prince, to whom they were engaged by all the ties of religion, honour, and gratitude; one who had power to crush them, and who exercised that power with the most unrelenting severity. Thus truly might it be said of the people of Judah, in the words of the prophet Hosea, chap. <span class='bible'>Jer 13:11<\/span>. &#8220;God gave them kings in his anger, and took, or applied, them to the purposes of his indignation;&#8221; which indeed is but another way of expressing the sense here intended, namely, that it, Zedekiah&#8217;s succession, was the consequence of the anger of JEHOVAH against Judah and Jerusalem, and designed finally to terminate in his removal of them out of his sight. <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Commentary on the Holy Bible by Thomas Coke<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>through: 2Sa 24:1, 1Ki 10:9, Pro 28:2, Ecc 10:16, Isa 3:4, Isa 3:5, Isa 19:4 <\/p>\n<p>Zedekiah: 2Ch 36:13, Eze 17:15-21 <\/p>\n<p>Reciprocal: Gen 4:16 &#8211; went Ezr 4:12 &#8211; rebellious Ezr 4:15 &#8211; for which Isa 36:5 &#8211; that Jer 7:15 &#8211; I will Jer 15:1 &#8211; cast Jer 21:2 &#8211; for Jer 23:39 &#8211; cast Jer 27:8 &#8211; that nation Eze 19:14 &#8211; fire Eze 21:23 &#8211; but<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: The Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>52:3 {a} For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.<\/p>\n<p>(a) So the Lord punished sin by sin and gave him up to his rebellious heart, till he had brought the enemy on him to lead him away and his people.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Geneva Bible Notes<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>The Lord brought hardships on Judah and Jerusalem-during Jehoiakim&rsquo;s evil reign, because of Judah&rsquo;s iniquity-until He sent the king out of His presence into Babylon (cf. 2Ch 36:3).
