Jeremiah 44:10

HUmbled] the Italian, tamed; that is to say, bruised by my scourges, nor humbled in Spirit.

Jeremiah 44:14

A desire] or where they hope to returne But such] the Italian, but some; namely, some small number which I will spare, and favour, v. 28.

Jeremiah 44:19

Without our men] the Italian, without the authority of our governours; that is to say, our Kings, and Princes, and some times our very Priests have tolerated, and approved of what we have done And that their former consent shall be a sufficient warrant for us to continue in the same actions, and we will not submit to thy judgement. And some referring this idolatry especially to women, translate it our husbands.

Jeremiah 44:21

Into his mind] the Italian, is it not come up into his heart] that is to say, hath he not at last taken notice of it, to shew his judgements upon it? Or hath he not been moved to revenge it?

Jeremiah 44:26

My Name] the meaning is, I will destroy all the Jewes which are in Egypt, so that they shall prophane my Name no more, abusing it in their oaths, though they be idolaters.
