This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Therefore - So severe shall be the Jews’ bondage that their deliverance from it shall be a greater benefit than that out of Egypt. The consolation is incidental here; the prominent thought is the severity of their punishment, so great that their rescue from it will be greater than that from Egypt [Calvin]; so the context, Jer 16:13, Jer 16:17, Jer 16:18, proves (Jer 23:7, Jer 23:8; Isa 43:18).
