Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will smite the inhabitants of this city,.... With one or other of his arrows after mentioned: or, "them that abide in this city" o; that do not go out of it, and surrender themselves to the king of Babylon; see Jeremiah 21:9;
both man and beast; the latter for the sin of the former; particularly such beasts as were fit for food are meant, whereby the famine would be increased, and so the greater destruction of men:
they shall die of a great pestilence; both man and beast; a disease which comes immediately from the hand of God; hence Hippocrates used to call it το θειον, "the divine disease": here it denotes a very uncommon one, which should sweep away large numbers; called great, both for quality, or the nature of it, and for the quantity of persons that died of it.
o את יושבי העיר "manentes in hac urbe", Gataker.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A great pestilence - As the result of the excessive crowding of men and animals in a confined space with all sanitary regulations utterly neglected.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 21:6. They shall die of a great pestilence. — The sword may appear to be that of man, though I have given the Chaldeans their commission; but the pestilence shall appear to be the immediate act of GOD.
