46:11Go up to Gilead and get medicinal ointment,19
you dear poor people of Egypt.20
But it will prove useless no matter how much medicine you use;21
there will be no healing for you.
Footnotes
- 19 Heb “balm.” See 8:22 and the notes on this phrase there.
- 20 Heb “Virgin Daughter of Egypt.” See the study note on for the significance of the use of this figure. The use of the figure here perhaps refers to the fact that Egypt’s geographical isolation allowed her safety and protection that a virgin living at home would enjoy under her father’s protection (so F. B. Huey, Jeremiah, Lamentations [], 379). By her involvement in the politics of Palestine she had forfeited that safety and protection and was now suffering for it.
- 21 Heb “In vain you multiply [= make use of many] medicines.”
