2. 亞撒利雅——是下埃及這計畫的發起人；與在巴比倫的亞撒利雅截然不同
（Da 1:7; 3:12-18）。
驕傲——驕傲是不順服與藐視神之母。
英文原文

3. 巴錄——他既較年輕，便將從耶利米所受的啟示說得更為激烈。由於這個原因，也因他們知道他親迦勒底人，便對他生了疑心。他們乖謬的反覆無常令人驚訝。在第四十二章中，他們承認耶利米的可信——這是他們長久以來有許多證據證明的；此處卻指控他說謊。未重生之人的心充滿了詭詐。
英文原文
3. Baruch--He being the younger spake out the revelations which he received from Jeremiah more vehemently. From this cause, and from their knowing that he was in favor with the Chaldeans, arose their suspicion of him. Their perverse fickleness was astonishing. In the forty-second chapter they acknowledged the trustworthiness of Jeremiah, of which they had for so long so many proofs; yet here they accuse him of a lie. The mind of the unregenerate man is full of deceits.

7. 答比匿——（見 Jer 2:16 註解）；即尼羅河坦尼斯支流上的達弗尼，鄰近比留申。他們自然先到這裡，因它位於埃及面向巴勒斯坦的邊境上。
英文原文
7. Tahpanhes--(See on
Jer 2:16);
Daphne on the Tanitic branch of the Nile, near Pelusium. They naturally came to it first, being on the frontier of Egypt, towards Palestine.

9. 石頭——作為尼布甲尼撒寶座的根基而鋪下
(Jer 43:10)。
泥——即灰泥。
磚窯——在那炎熱的地帶，磚通常在陽光下曬乾，並不窯燒。法老的宮殿當時正在建造或修繕；因此入口處才有灰泥和磚窯。尼布甲尼撒寶座的底座，要用與法老房屋相同的材料建造。藉著一個可見的象徵，暗示後者的寶座將在前者傾覆之時被高舉。當時埃及正與巴比倫爭奪東方的霸權。
英文原文
9. stones--to be laid as the foundation beneath Nebuchadnezzar's throne
(Jer 43:10).
clay--mortar.
brick-kiln--Bricks in that hot country are generally dried in the sun, not burned. The palace of Pharaoh was being built or repaired at this time; hence arose the mortar and brick-kiln at the entry. Of the same materials as that of which Pharaoh's house was built, the substructure of Nebuchadnezzar's throne should be constructed. By a visible symbol implying that the throne of the latter shall be raised on the downfall of the former. Egypt at that time contended with Babylon for the empire of the East.

11. 定為死亡的必死亡——即致命的瘟疫。有些人他要以瘟疫殺死，這是由於食物不足或敗壞所致；另一些人因刀劍而死；又有些人他要擄去，全按神的吩咐（見
Jer 15:2
之註解）。
英文原文
11. such as are for death to death--that is, the deadly plague. Some he shall cause to die by the plague arising from insufficient or bad food; others, by the sword; others he shall lead captive, according as God shall order it (see on
Jer 15:2).

12. 神廟——他連廟也不放過，其怒氣將如此猛烈。這是對猶太人的責備——他們竟投奔埃及，一個其自身安全依賴於無能偶像的國家。
焚燒……擄去——焚燒木頭的埃及偶像，帶到巴比倫那些金屬和其他材質的。
披戴這地云云——
Isa 49:18
有相同的比喻。
如牧人云云——他將如牧人即將帶領羊群前往別處而穿上外衣一般，迅速而輕易地成為埃及的主宰。
英文原文
12. houses of . . . gods--He shall not spare even the temple, such will be His fury. A reproof to the Jews that they betook themselves to Egypt, a land whose own safety depended on helpless idols.
burn . . . carry . . . captives--burn the Egyptian idols of wood, carry to Babylon those of gold and other metals.
array himself with the land, &c.--
Isa 49:18
has the same metaphor.
as a shepherd, &c.--He shall become master of Egypt as speedily and easily as a shepherd, about to pass on with his flock to another place, puts on his garment.

13. 柱像——即雕像或方尖碑。
伯示麥——希伯來文意為「日之家」；希臘人稱之為「赫利奧波利斯」；埃及人稱之為「安」（Ge 41:45）；位於尼羅河以東，孟菲斯以北數英里。以法蓮敘利亞人說，那雕像高達六十肘；基座十肘；其上有重達千磅的冠冕。今日僅存的一座方尖碑高約六七十尺，四周刻有象形文字。耶路撒冷傾覆後第五年，尼布甲尼撒放棄對推羅的圍攻，遠征埃及〔JOSEPHUS，《猶太古史》，10.9.7〕。據亞拉伯人所言，埃及人有個傳統：因他們的王收留了猶太人，尼布甲尼撒便蹂躪了他們的地，使之荒涼四十年。但見 Eze 29:2；Eze 29:13 註解。
他必焚燒——此處將行動歸於工具尼布甲尼撒，而在 Jer 43:12 則歸於神。連廟宇尚且不能倖免，更何況私人房屋。
英文原文
13. images--statues or obelisks.
Beth-shemesh--that is, "the house of the sun," in Hebrew; called by the Greeks "Heliopolis"; by the Egyptians, "On"
(Ge 41:45);
east of the Nile, and a few miles north of Memphis. Ephraim Syrus says, the statue rose to the height of sixty cubits; the base was ten cubits. Above there was a miter of a thousand pounds weight. Hieroglyphics are traced around the only obelisk remaining in the present day, sixty or seventy feet high. On the fifth year after the overthrow of Jerusalem, Nebuchadnezzar, leaving the siege of Tyre, undertook his expedition to Egypt [JOSEPHUS, Antiquities, 10.9,7]. The Egyptians, according to the Arabs, have a tradition that their land was devastated by Nebuchadnezzar in consequence of their king having received the Jews under his protection, and that it lay desolate forty years. But see on
Eze 29:2;
Eze 29:13.
shall he burn--Here the act is attributed to Nebuchadnezzar, the instrument, which in
Jer 43:12
is attributed to God. If even the temples be not spared, much less private houses.
Jer 43:1-13.
猶太人將耶利米與巴錄帶入埃及。耶利米以象徵預言尼布甲尼撒將征服埃及，並預言逃亡者的結局
