At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers look not back to their children for feebleness of hands;
At the noise of the stamping of the feet of his war-horses, at the rushing of his carriages and the thunder of his wheels, fathers will give no thought to their children, because their hands are feeble;
as they hear the sound of stallions charging, the rattling of chariots and the rumble of their wheels. Fathers won't go back to help their sons—they have no strength because they're terrified.
At the noise and stamping of ye hoofes of his strong horses, at the noise of his charets, and at the rumbling of his wheeles: ye fathers shall not looke backe to their children, for feeblenes of handes,
From the sound of the stamping of the hoofs of his mighty ones, From the rushing of his chariot, the noise of his wheels, Fathers have not turned unto sons, From feebleness of hands,
At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers don’t look back for their children because their hands are so feeble,
At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong horses , at the rushing of his chariots, and at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back to their children for feebleness of hands:
At the noise of the marching of arms, and of his soldiers, at the rushing of his chariots, and the multitude of his wheels. The fathers have not looked back to the children, for feebleness of hands,
They will hear the sound of the hooves of the enemy horses, and they will hear the rumble/noise of the wheels of their enemies’ chariots. Men will run away; they will not stop to help their children; they will be completely weak and helpless [MTY].

Context — Judgment on the Philistines
1This is the word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet about the Philistines before Pharaoh struck down Gaza.
2This is what the LORD says: “See how the waters are rising from the north and becoming an overflowing torrent. They will overflow the land and its fullness, the cities and their inhabitants. The people will cry out, and all who dwell in the land will wail
3at the sound of the galloping hooves of stallions, the rumbling of chariots, and the clatter of their wheels. The fathers will not turn back for their sons; their hands will hang limp.
4For the day has come to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every remaining ally. Indeed, the LORD is about to destroy the Philistines, the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor. 5The people of Gaza will shave their heads in mourning; Ashkelon will be silenced. O remnant of their valley, how long will you gash yourself?Cross References

A quiver rattles at his side, along with a flashing spear and lance. Trembling with excitement, he devours the distance; he cannot stand still when the ram’s horn sounds.

Jeremiah 47:3 Summary
Jeremiah 47:3 describes the terrifying sounds of an approaching army, which represents God's judgment on the Philistines. The fathers are so afraid that they won't even try to save their own sons, and they will be too weak to do anything. This verse reminds us that God is a God of justice and will punish sin, as seen in (Psalm 96:13) and (Isaiah 13:4). We should take this as a warning to repent and turn to God, just like the people of Gaza who shaved their heads in mourning, as mentioned in (Jeremiah 47:5).
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the sounds mentioned in Jeremiah 47:3, such as the galloping hooves of stallions and the rumbling of chariots?
These sounds represent the approach of an army, symbolizing the coming judgment of God upon the Philistines, as also seen in Isaiah 13:4 and Ezekiel 26:7-11.
Why do the fathers not turn back for their sons in Jeremiah 47:3?
The fathers' inability to turn back for their sons indicates the overwhelming fear and panic that will grip the people in the face of God's judgment, much like the fear described in Deuteronomy 32:25 and Lamentations 1:20.
What does it mean for the fathers' hands to hang limp in Jeremiah 47:3?
The phrase 'their hands will hang limp' is a metaphor for the fathers' loss of strength and courage in the face of disaster, similar to the description of God's judgment in Jeremiah 6:24 and Ezekiel 7:17.
How does Jeremiah 47:3 relate to the rest of the chapter?
Jeremiah 47:3 is part of a larger prophecy against the Philistines, warning of God's coming judgment and destruction, as seen in Jeremiah 47:1-7 and supported by other scriptures like Zephaniah 2:4-7.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways in which I can prepare myself for the day of God's judgment, and how can I ensure that I am not caught off guard like the Philistines?
- How can I balance the fear of God's judgment with the knowledge of His love and mercy, as seen in scriptures like Psalm 103:8-14 and Romans 11:22?
- In what ways can I apply the lesson of the fathers' inability to turn back for their sons to my own life, and how can I prioritize the well-being of those around me?
- What are some practical steps I can take to 'gird up my loins' and prepare for the spiritual battles that lie ahead, as encouraged in scriptures like 1 Peter 1:13 and Ephesians 6:10-18?

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 47:3
This is all but a description of the march of an army, so terrible as should make parents forget their natural affection, and flee away to save themselves, looking upon themselves as lost, and unable to protect their children.
Trapp's Commentary on Jeremiah 47:3
Jeremiah 47:3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong [horses], at the rushing of his chariots, [and at] the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back to [their] children for feebleness of hands;Ver. 3. The fathers shall not look back to their children.] Though never so dear to them - φιλτατα the Greeks call them, and the Latins have their filius of φιλος - but shall be solicitous of their own lives only. Qui de Deo ne tantillum quidem fuerant solliciti. For feebleness of hands.] Through fear and fail of vital spirits, so as to forget natural affection also.
Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 47:3
(3) The fathers shall not look back to their children.—The selfishness of panic was to reach its highest point, and to crush out the instincts of natural affection. Even fathers would be content to save themselves, regardless of their children’s lives.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Jeremiah 47:3
Verse 3. The stamping of the hoofs] At the galloping sound, - Quadrupedante putrem sonitu quatit ungula campum, is a line of Virgil, (AEn. viii. 596,) much celebrated; and quoted here by Blayney, where the galloping sound of the horses' hoofs is heard. In the stamping of the horses, the rushing of the chariots, and the rumbling of the wheels, our translators intended to convey the sense by the sound of the words; and they have not been unsuccessful. Their translation of the original is at the same time sufficiently literal. The fathers shall not look back] Though their children are left behind, they have neither strength nor courage to go back to bring them off.
Cambridge Bible on Jeremiah 47:3
3. At the noise … wheels] Gi. omits all three clauses, Co. the middle one; both objecting on metrical grounds. strong ones] See on Jeremiah 8:16.
Barnes' Notes on Jeremiah 47:3
His strong horses - War-horses, chargers. The rushing of his chariots - Rather, the rattling, the crashing noise which they make as they advance.
Whedon's Commentary on Jeremiah 47:3
3. Strong horses — War horses. The fathers shall not look back — Nothing could more impressively set forth the appalling danger and terror.
