This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jer_15:9 She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while [it was] yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.

She hath given up the ghost.] Heb., She putteth out her soul. {as Job_11:20} We read of some mothers who, hearing of their sons to be slain in battle, have fallen down dead in the place.
Her sun is gone down.] See on Amo_8:9. A Christian, when at worst, can sing, Non omnium dierum sol occidit, Not on all days the sun sets. I look for better days yet.
