| As for--rather supply, "Thus saith our Redeemer" [MAURER]. LOWTH supposes this verse to be the exclamation of a chorus breaking in with praises, "Our Redeemer! Jehovah of hosts," &c. (Jer 50:34). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| As for our Redeemer - This verse stands absolutely, and is not connected with the preceding or the following. It seems to be an expression of admiration, or of grateful surprise, by which the prophet saw Yahweh as the Redeemer of his people. He saw, in vision, Babylon humbled, and, full of the subject, he breaks out into an expression of grateful surprise and rejoicing. 'O! our Redeemer! it is the work of our Saviour, the Holy One of Israel! How great is his power! How faithful is he! How manifestly is he revealed! Babylon is destroyed. Her idols could not save her. Her destruction has been accomplished by him who is the Redeemer of his people, and the Holy One of Israel.' Lowth regards this verse as the language of a chorus that breaks in upon the midst of the subject, celebrating the praises of God. The subject is resumed in the next verse. |

34 Their Redeemer [01350] is strong [02389]; the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635] is his name [08034]: he shall throughly [07378] plead [07378] their cause [07379], that he may give rest [07280] to the land [0776], and disquiet [07264] the inhabitants [03427] of Babylon [0894].

16 They shall be ashamed [0954], and also confounded [03637], all of them: they shall go [01980] to confusion [03639] together [03162] that are makers [02796] of idols [06736].
