Commentary on Jeremiah 48:7
Moab's trust in works and treasures led to downfall. The Hebrew 'ma'asim' (works) and 'otzerot' (treasures) represent human achievement and accumulated wealth - the twin pillars of self-reliance. God declares these insufficient - Chemosh (Moab's god) will go into captivity with his people. This echoes biblical warnings against trusting riches (Ps 49:6-7, 1 Tim 6:17) and works-righteousness (Eph 2:8-9).
