“Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face, that thy shame may appear.”
Jeremiah 13:26 (KJV)
Commentary on Jeremiah 13:26
This verse announces shameful exposure: 'Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face, that thy shame may appear.' 'Discover thy skirts' (chasaphti shulayikh) means to expose what should be covered—lifting garments over the face to expose genitals. 'That thy shame may appear' (nir'ah qeloneikh) makes humiliation public. This was how captors treated conquered women—stripping and humiliating. The language of sexual exposure applied to personified Jerusalem/Judah represents ultimate public disgrace. Their spiritual adultery (idolatry) produces physical humiliation (captivity's shame).
