Jer 14:1-22. PROPHECIES ON THE OCCASION OF A DROUGHT SENT IN JUDGMENT ON JUDEA.
1. Literally, "That which was the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah
concerning the dearth"
drought--literally, the "withholdings," namely, of rain
(De 11:17;
2Ch 7:13).
This word should be used especially of the withholding of rain
because rain is in those regions of all things the one chiefly needed
(Jer 17:8,
Margin).
