Jeremiah 48:19 Summary
[Jeremiah 48:19 is a call to witness the destruction of Moab, a nation that had turned away from God, and to ask those fleeing about the destruction, much like a reporter gathering news (Jeremiah 48:18). The verse is asking the people of Aroer to be aware of what is happening in the world around them and to ask questions, just like we should be aware of the world around us and ask God for wisdom and understanding (Proverbs 2:6). This verse reminds us that God is a God of justice and will judge those who turn away from Him, but He is also a God of mercy and love, who desires that all people would come to know Him (Romans 11:22, John 3:16).]
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of Aroer in Jeremiah 48:19?
Aroer was a city located near the border of Moab, and its inhabitants are being called to witness the destruction of Moab, as prophesied in Jeremiah 48:18, where the destroyer of Moab has come against the daughter dwelling in Dibon.
Why are the people of Aroer being asked to stand by the road and watch?
The people of Aroer are being asked to stand by the road and watch so they can see the devastation of Moab firsthand and ask those fleeing about the destruction, similar to how the prophet Habakkuk was asked to watch and see the evil that would befall Babylon in Habakkuk 2:1.
What can we learn from the man fleeing or the woman escaping in Jeremiah 48:19?
The man fleeing or the woman escaping in Jeremiah 48:19 represents the desperate state of those trying to escape the judgment of God, much like the inhabitants of Babylon in Isaiah 47:1-3, who were also trying to escape the judgment of God.
How does Jeremiah 48:19 relate to the rest of the chapter?
Jeremiah 48:19 is part of a larger prophecy against Moab, where God is warning the people of Moab about the destruction that is coming upon them, as seen in Jeremiah 48:20, where Moab is put to shame and destroyed.
Reflection Questions
- What would you ask someone who has experienced the judgment of God, and how would you respond to their story?
- How can we, like the people of Aroer, be witnesses to the power and majesty of God in our own lives and in the world around us?
- What are some ways we can 'stand by the road and watch' in our own lives, being aware of the world around us and the ways in which God is working?
- How can we balance the need to be aware of the evil and destruction in the world with the need to trust in God's sovereignty and goodness, as seen in Psalm 23:4?
Gill's Exposition on Jeremiah 48:19
O inhabitant of Aroer,.... Another city that belonged to Moab, situated on the border of it towards Ammon, near the river Arnon; [See comments on Isaiah 17:2]; stand by the way, and espy; get to the
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Jeremiah 48:19
O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done? Aroer - on the north bank of the Arnon, a city of Ammon (Deuteronomy 2:36; Deuteronomy 3:12).
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 48:19
Aroer was a city in the lot of Gad and Reuben, . In David’ s time it was in the hand of the Jews, , but in Isaiah’ s time it belonged to Syria, , and here it is reckoned to the Moabites. The inhabitants of it are called to stand by the way, and seeing the Moabites fleeing, to ask what news. Others think that Aroer was at this time a city of the Ammonites, and here called unto to see their neighbours the Moabites fleeing before their enemies.
Trapp's Commentary on Jeremiah 48:19
Jeremiah 48:19 O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, [and] say, What is done?Ver. 19. Stand by the way and espy, &c.] What brave rhetoric is here? Tenendum quidem, prophetas et apostolos non affectasse artem dicendi: vide tamen quanta etoquentia peroret Spiritus, Sanctus. Egregia est prosopopoeia.
Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 48:19
(19) O inhabitant of Aroer.—There seems to have been two cities of this name: one which had belonged first to the territory of Sihon, then to Reuben, then to Moab, on the north side of the Arnon (Deuteronomy 2:36; Deuteronomy 3:12; Deuteronomy 4:48; Joshua 12:2); another in the Ammonite territory belonging to Gad, near Rabbath-Ammon, in the valley of the Jabbok (Numbers 32:34; Joshua 13:25; Judges 11:33). Both are probably comprised under the “cities of Aroer” in Isaiah 17:2. The name exists in the modern Arair. As lying on the frontier, the inhabitants of the Northern Aroer are represented as seeing the fugitives, male and female, from Dibon, and asking what had happened to drive them from their city. Milton’s lines (Par. Lost, L 407) may be quoted as illustrating the topography : “From Aroer to Nebo, and the wild Of Southmost Abarim; in Hesebon And Horonaim, Seon’s realm . . .”
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Jeremiah 48:19
Verse 19. O inhabitant of Aroer] See Clarke on Jeremiah 48:6. This place, being at a greater distance, is counselled to watch for its own safety, and inquire of every passenger, What is done? that it may know when to pack up and be gone.
Cambridge Bible on Jeremiah 48:19
19. Aroer] now ‘Ara‘ir, not to be confounded with the Aroer of Num 32:34, a Gadite city, or with an Aroer belonging to Judah (1 Samuel 30:28). The Aroer of the text was a few miles S.W. of Dibon. Mesha records on the “Moabite stone” that he “built (i.e. restored) the city and made the road over the Arnon.”
Barnes' Notes on Jeremiah 48:19
Aroer - On the Arnon, due south of Dibon. If Dibon falls, the turn of Aroer will come next, and therefore its inhabitants are to be on the look out, asking for news.
Whedon's Commentary on Jeremiah 48:19
19. Aroer — A town on the northern bank of the Arnon, once belonging to Ammon, but now, apparently, to Moab.
