This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Jer_23:2 Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD.

Ver. 2. Against the pastors.] Impostors, rather.



That feed my people.
] Or, That feed upon my people, rather; attonsioni gregis potius quam attentioni consulentes, more minding gain than godliness.



Ye have scattered my flock.
] And worried them, as so many evening wolves, {Zep_3:3} grievous, or fat wolves. {Act_20:29} {See Trapp on "Act_20:29"}



Behold, I will visit upon you.] Ludit in voce visitare; I will visit you in another sense, for your not visiting my people according to your duty. {Eze_34:4; Eze_34:6; Eze_34:8}
