Jeremiah 48:27

"“Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against the LORD. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will be in derision."

Key Reflection

This verse suggests that those who rebel against God, like Moab, will experience a profound spiritual downfall. They will not only face humiliation and ridicule but also internal corruption symbolized by wallowing in their own vomit, reflecting the depths of their moral degradation and divine judgment.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Was he found ... -Or, “was he found among thieves that so often as thou speakest of him” thou waggest thy head? - in contempt for a fallen enemy.
