Contextual Overview

28 About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, overcame. This is what the Lord has said: Up! go against Kedar, and make an attack on the children of the east. 29 Their tents and their flocks they will take; they will take away for themselves their curtains and all their vessels and their camels: they will give a cry to them, Fear on every side. 30 Go in flight, go wandering far off, take cover in deep places, O people of Hazor, says the Lord; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, has made a design against you, he has a purpose against you in mind. 31 Up! go against a nation which is living in comfort and without fear of danger, says the Lord, without doors or locks, living by themselves. 32 And their camels will be taken from them by force, and their great herds will come into the hands of their attackers: those who have the ends of their hair cut I will send in flight to all the winds; and I will send their fate on them from every side, says the Lord. 33 And Hazor will be a hole for jackals, a waste for ever: no one will be living in it, and no son of man will have a resting-place there.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Flee, get you far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor,

saith the Lord,.... The same is said to the inhabitants of Dedan,

:-;

for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you: had determined upon their destruction, and had consulted and contrived ways and means to effect it; and therefore, since so powerful an enemy had such a design upon them, it was high time to flee, and get as far off as they could, and hide themselves in the caverns of the earth.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A purpose against you - Others read “against them” (the wealthy nation, Jeremiah 49:31).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 49:30. Dwell deep — Retire into the depths of the desert. See on Jeremiah 49:8.

Inhabitants of Hazor — I cannot find this place. It was no doubt in Arabia, and a place of considerable importance; but it is now no more.
