Jeremiah 15:7 (KJV)
Commentary on Jeremiah 15:7
This verse describes comprehensive judgment: 'And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people, since they return not from their ways.' 'Fan with a fan' (zaritim bemizreh) uses winnowing imagery—separating chaff from grain, scattering the worthless. 'In the gates of the land' suggests border locations where enemies enter. 'Bereave of children' (shakkaltim) describes loss of the next generation—the future eliminated. 'They return not from their ways' reiterates the persistent refusal to repent (shuv) that justifies judgment.
