How preachers through history handled this text
33 public-domain excerpts on Jeremiah 6, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“2. I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman 2. Quietae (alii vertunt, speciosam; sed alter sensus melius quadrat, quietae igitur) et delicatae similem feci filiam Sion. 3. The shepherds with their flocks shall come unto her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place. 3. Super eam venient pastores et greges eorum, figent adversus eam tabernecula sua in circuitu; pascent vir ad manum suam (hoc est, quisque ad locum suum). …”
— Calvin, Commentary on Jeremiah and Lamentations - Volume 1, on Jeremiah 6:2–3 (Public Domain)
