The Key Word — שְׁאֵרִית, she'eritgenerated
The word שְׁאֵרִית (she'erit) is a feminine singular noun meaning 'remnant' or 'remainder.' It denotes what is left after destruction, such as the survivors after a calamity. This term is significant in the context of God's plans for His people, often indicating a faithful remnant who will continue His purposes.
Derived from a root meaning 'to remain,' it is used in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, particularly in prophetic literature, to signify those who endure despite judgment. The concept of a remnant is crucial in understanding God's mercy and the hope for restoration.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses no remnant to convey the complete absence of survivors.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb תִֽהְיֶ֖ה (tihyeh), meaning 'it will belong,' governs the main clause, indicating the state of the remnant. The structure is straightforward, with a subject followed by a negation and a description of the disaster to come.
The sentence is built around the declaration of God's intent, with the subject שְׁאֵרִית and the negation לֹא emphasizing the totality of the absence of survivors.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, שְׁאֵרִית is rendered as ἐγκατάλειμμα (egkataleimma), which also means 'remnant.' This choice aligns closely with the Hebrew meaning, indicating a faithful remnant but with a focus on the act of leaving behind.
This translation choice suggests a continuity in the concept of a remnant, but also emphasizes the abandonment aspect, which may reflect the severity of the judgment being pronounced.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Jeremiah 11:23 tells us that God will bring disaster upon the people of Anathoth, and as a result, there will be no survivors left. This verse highlights the seriousness of God's judgment and the consequences of the people's actions.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(23) There shall be no remnant of them.—In Ezra 2:23; Nehemiah 7:27 we find that 128 of Anathoth returned from exile. The words must therefore be limited either to the men who had conspired against the prophet, or to the complete deportation of its inhabitants. The situation of Anathoth, about three or four miles north-east of Jerusalem, would expose it to the full fury of the invasion. The words are apparently spoken with reference to the ever-recurring burden of Isaiah’s prophecy that “a remnant “should return (Isaiah 1:9; Isaiah 6:13; Isaiah 10:21). The conspirators of Anathoth were excluded from that promise. Even the year of their visitation.—See Notes on Jeremiah 8:12; Jeremiah 10:15.

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

an'-a-thoth (`anathoth; Anathoth): A town which lay between Michmash and Jerusalem (Isa 10:30), in the territory of Benjamin, assigned to the Levites (Jos 21:18). It was the native place of Abiathar (1Ki 2:26), and of the prophet Jer (Jer 1:1; 11:21 ff, etc.). Here lay the field which, under remarkable circumstances, the prophet purchased (Jer 32:7 ff). Two of David's distinguished soldiers, Abiezer (2Sa 23:27) and Jehu (1Ch 12:3), also hailed from Anathoth. It was again occupied by the Benjamites after the return…
Anathoth
The name of one of the cities of refuge, in the tribe of Benjamin (Josh. 21:18). The Jews, as a rule, did not change the names of the towns they found in Palestine; hence this town may be regarded as deriving its name from the goddess Anat. It was the native place of Abiezer, one of David’s “thirty” (2 Sam. 23:27), and of Jehu, another of his mighty men (1 Chr. 12:3). It is chiefly notable, however, as the birth-place and usual residence of Jeremiah (Jer. 1:1; 11:21-23; 29:27; 32:7-9). It suffered greatly from the army of Sennacherib, and only 128 men returned to it from the Exile (Neh. 7:27;

There are the remains of walls and strong foundations, and the quarries still supply Jerusalem with building stones.
