116. Internal Meaning of Jeremiah, Chapter 50
Of those who have adulterated and falsified the goods and truths of the church, who are meant by Babylon and Chaldea. (3)
1-3 They will no longer have any good or truth. (3)
4-7 Then those who are in ignorance of good and truth, because of a lack of them, will be brought to the Lord. (11)
8 They will depart from Babylon. 11 (11)
11 because they have vastated the church. (3)
12-13 It is without any truth. (3, 4)
14-16 Their destruction at the time of judgment, (15)
17 because she has destroyed the church. (15, 3)
18-20 After Babylon has been destroyed, a new church will be established, which will be acceptable to the Lord. (3, 11)
21-24 Babylon will be destroyed because she is against the Lord. (3)
25-30 They are to be wholly destroyed, (3)
31-32 on account of the love of ruling, (3)
33-34 because they do not refrain from destroying the church which the Lord establishes and redeems. (3)
35-38 All things appertaining to them from firsts to lasts have been destroyed by means of falsities. (3)
Jeremiah 50:39-40
39
Therefore the wild animals of the desert with the wolves shall dwell there, and the ostriches shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited forever; neither shall it be lived in from generation to generation.
40
As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities of it, says Yahweh, so shall no man dwell there, neither shall any son of man live therein.
