Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation,.... Begin in one nation, and then go on to another; first in Judea, and then in Egypt; and so on, like a catching distemper, or like fire that first consumes one house, and then another; and thus shall the cup go round from nation to nation, before prophesied of: thus, beginning at Judea, one nation after another was destroyed by the king of Babylon; then he and his monarchy were destroyed by the Medes and Persians; and then they by the Macedonians; and then the Greeks by the Romans;
and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth; or "from the sides of [it]" t; that is, "from the ends of [it]"; as the Targum, which paraphrases it,
"and many people shall come openly from the ends of the earth;''
this was first verified in the Chaldean army under Nebuchadnezzar, compared to a whirlwind, Jeremiah 4:13; and then in the Medes and Persians under Cyrus; and after that in the Greeks under Alexander; the great and last of all in the Romans under Titus Vespasian.
t מירכתי ארץ "a lateribus terrae", Schmidt; "a finibus terrae", Vatablus.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A great whirlwind - Or, storm.
The coasts of the earth - See Jeremiah 6:22 note. The thunderstorm seen first on the edge of the horizon overspreads the heaven, and travels from nation to nation in its destructive course.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 25:32. Evil shall go forth from nation to nation — One nation after another shall fall before the Chaldeans.
