Commentary

Commentary on Jeremiah 25:10

Theological / Devotional

The voice of mirth. Not only would these sounds of joy (see on ch. 7:34) be heard no more, but also “the sound of the millstones,” the grinding of corn by women (Ex. 11:5; Matt. 24:41), and “the light of the candle” would cease. The picture presented in Jer. 25:10 is one depicting the complete dissolution of family life, both as to its seasons of rejoicing and as to its daily routine (see Rev. 18:22, 23).
