Commentary on Jeremiah 14:4

Theological / Devotional

Chapt. An Old English form of “chapped.” However, the word thus translated does not mean “chapped,” as we now define that word, but rather “to be stricken with terror.” Poetically, words normally ascribed to human beings are sometimes ascribed to inanimate objects.
