The passages span Jeremiah 49 and 42, covering the \"Oracles Against the Nations\" \u2014 prophetic judgments delivered against Ammon, Edom, Damascus, Kedar, Hazor, and Elam \u2014 followed by the scene where Judean survivors ask Jeremiah to inquire of God whether they should flee to Egypt after the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem.\n\nThe oracles share a recurring structure: accusation, announcement of military devastation, and occasional promise of eventual restoration. The Egypt passage is notably dramatic: the people solemnly pledge to obey whatever God commands, but God's answer \u2014 stay in the land or face sword and famine in Egypt \u2014 anticipates their disobedience, and Jeremiah accuses them of bad faith even before they act. The distinctive feature of this document is its scholarly apparatus: the KJV column's Strong's numbers allow readers to trace every word to its Hebrew or Aramaic root, while the parallel Greek and Hebrew columns enable direct comparison of how the ancient versions diverge, which is particularly significant for Jeremiah, a book where the LXX differs substantially from the Masoretic Text in ordering and content. It would be of primary interest to Bible translators, textual critics, seminarians, or serious students doing word studies and source-text comparison.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Jeremiah: Jeremiah 49","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":3215}
