jeremiah 7:29 'Cut off your hair and cast [it] away, And take up a lamentation on the bare heights; For the LORD has rejected and forsaken The generation of His wrath.'

< Jeremiah 7:28
Jeremiah 7:30 >

      29. Jeremiah addresses Jerusalem under the figure of a woman, who, in grief for her lost children, deprives her head of its chief ornament and goes up to the hills to weep (Jud 11:37, 38; Isa 15:2).
      hair--flowing locks, like those of a Nazarite.
      high places--The scene of her idolatries is to be the scene of her mourning (Jer 3:21).
      generation of his wrath--the generation with which He is wroth. So Isa 10:6; "the people of My wrath."
