Commentary on Jeremiah 37:5

Theological / Devotional

Then Pharaoh’s army. This incident was doubtless the outgrowth of the agreement between Hophra (called Apries by the Greeks) and Zedekiah to resist Nebuchadnezzar (see on Eze. 17:15). The Egyptian armies were generally well equipped with chariots and horses (Eze. 17:15; see Isa. 31:1), and capable of carrying out siege operations (Eze. 17:17).
