Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jeremiah said to Seraiah,.... At the time he delivered the copy to him:
when thou comest to Babylon; or art come to Babylon, to the city of Babylon, and to the captive Jews there:
and shalt see them; the captives; or rather the great and populous city of Babylon, its high walls, gates, and towers, whose destruction is foretold in this book, and which might seem incredible. Abarbinel interprets it of his looking into the book given him; which he thinks was not to be opened and looked into till he came to Babylon:
and shalt read all these words; not before the king of Babylon and his princes, and yet not privately to himself; but in some proper place, in the presence of the captive Jews, or the chief of them, convened for that purpose.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Historical appendix. In his fourth year Zedekiah journeyed to Babylon either to obtain some favor from Nebuchadnezzar, or because he was summoned to be present on some state occasion. Jeremiah took the opportunity of sending to the exiles at Babylon this prophecy.
Jeremiah 51:59
Seraiah - Brother to Baruch.
A quiet prince - literally, âprince of the resting place, i. e., quartermaster.â It was his business to ride forward each day, and select the place where the king would halt and pass the night.
Jeremiah 51:60
In a book - literally, in one book, on one scroll of parchment.
Jeremiah 51:61
And shalt see, and shalt read - Or, then see that thou read etc.
Jeremiah 51:62-64
The sinking of the scroll was not for the purpose of destroying it, but was a symbolic act (compare the marginal reference); and the binding of a stone to it signified the certainty of the hasty ruin of the city.
Jeremiah 51:64
Thus far ... - Whoever added Jeremiah 52:0, evidently felt it his duty to point out that it was not written by Jeremiah.
