Jeremiah 51:36 Summary

[Jeremiah 51:36 is a promise from God that He will fight on behalf of His people and bring justice to those who have wronged them, just like He did for the Israelites in the book of Exodus. This verse reminds us that God is a powerful and loving God who cares deeply about His people and will stop at nothing to protect and vindicate them, as seen in Psalm 121:3 where it says 'He will not let your foot slip'. God's plan is to dry up the sources of Babylon's power, which is a picture of how He can bring down any stronghold or power that opposes Him, as seen in 2 Corinthians 10:4.]

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean for God to 'plead your case' in Jeremiah 51:36?

When God says He will plead the case of His people, it means He will argue on their behalf, much like a lawyer defends their client in court, as seen in Isaiah 51:22 where God says He will 'plead the case' of His people.

What is the 'sea' and 'springs' that God will dry up in Jeremiah 51:36?

The 'sea' and 'springs' likely refer to the sources of Babylon's power and wealth, such as the Euphrates River, which was the lifeblood of the city, similar to how God describes the Nile River as the 'lifeblood' of Egypt in Exodus 1:22.

Is God's vengeance in Jeremiah 51:36 contradictory to His command to 'love your enemies' in Matthew 5:44?

God's vengeance is not about personal revenge, but rather about upholding justice and righteousness, as seen in Deuteronomy 32:4, where God is described as 'a God of faithfulness and without injustice'

How does Jeremiah 51:36 relate to the New Testament concept of God's justice?

Jeremiah 51:36 is a reminder that God is a just God who will ultimately punish evil and vindicate His people, a theme that is continued in the New Testament, where God's justice is fulfilled through Jesus Christ, as seen in Romans 12:19.

Reflection Questions

  1. What are some ways that you feel like God is 'pleading your case' in your life, and how can you trust Him to work on your behalf?
  2. How do you think the people of Babylon felt when their 'sea' and 'springs' were dried up, and what can we learn from their experience about the fleeting nature of worldly power?
  3. In what ways can you see God's justice and righteousness at work in the world today, and how can you participate in His mission to bring justice to the oppressed?
  4. How does the promise of God's vengeance in Jeremiah 51:36 give you comfort and hope in the face of persecution or hardship?

Gill's Exposition on Jeremiah 51:36

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Jeremiah 51:36

Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 51:36

Men had need take heed how they give cause of appeals to God against them, especially the appeals of such as are a people that have a covenant relation to God. God in those cases ordinarily showeth himself a swift witness and judge, and gives a speedy judgment in such causes. Behold, saith God, I will plead thy cause, not with words, but actually with my judicial dispensations, therefore it is expounded by taking vengeance. The vengeance which God threateneth is expressed metaphorically under the notion of drying up her sea, and making her springs dry, which signifies the depriving her of all necessaries, not only of the abundance of her men, riches, treasures, but of her springs. Thus I had rather expound it, than as referring to the particular stratagem by which Cyrus took Babylon, viz, by drying up in some measure the river Euphrates, that is, turning it into other channels.

Trapp's Commentary on Jeremiah 51:36

Jeremiah 51:36 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.Ver. 36. Behold, I will plead thy cause.] Not so much verbally as really. Here is a present answer to Israel’ s cry.

Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 51:36

(36) I will dry up her sea . . .—The nouns have been variously interpreted, some commentators referring it to the “sea” of confluent nations, and finding the wealth of Babylon in the “springs” that fed its greatness; others to the Euphrates, or to the sea-like alluvial plain, intersected by canals and streams in which the city stood, often flooded by the river, so that it became as an actual sea (Herod. i. 184), or specially to the large lake described in the Note on Jeremiah 51:32. So in Isaiah 21:1 Babylon is described as “the desert of the sea.” The Hebrew word for “springs” is in the singular, her reservoir. Probably the literal and figurative meanings run into one another, and the “drying up” describes the exhaustion of the power of which the “sea” was the symbol. In Revelation 16:12 we have apparently an allusive reference to the language of this prediction.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Jeremiah 51:36

Verse 36. I will dry up her sea] Exhaust all her treasures.

Cambridge Bible on Jeremiah 51:36

36. Jehovah replies favourably to the demand for vengeance on Babylon. her sea … her fountain] either the Euphrates (cp. the word “sea” as applied to the river Nile in Isaiah 18:2; Isaiah 19:5; Nahum 3:8) or, better, the great lake or reservoir, four hundred and twenty furlongs in circumference, made by queen Nitocris (Herod. I. 185), or that constructed by Nebuchadnezzar (see Records of the Past, 2nd series, III. 116).

Barnes' Notes on Jeremiah 51:36

Her sea - Probably the great lake dug by Nitocris to receive the waters of the Euphrates. Her springs - Her reservoir; the whole system of canals dug Jeremiah 51:13. The wealth of Babylonia depended upon irrigation.

Whedon's Commentary on Jeremiah 51:36

36. Her sea — The Euphrates river. The distinction between seas and rivers was by no means so clearly drawn in ancient times as now. Hence Jonah speaks of a nahar (river) in the sea.
