Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 27:7

7 And all nations shall serve him and his son and his sons son , until the very time of his land come : and then many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of him .

That is, all these Nations, and some think that is expressed in the Article used here demonstratively, though not so taken notice of by our Translators.

And Evil-Merodach his Son, who succeeded him, chap. 52.31. and Belshazzar his Grandchild, Dan. 5.1, 11.

Until the period of his Kingdom shall come, (for Nations have their periods) which was after seventy years, according to chap. 29.10. during which years some say four Princes ruled in Babylon, the Scripture mentions but three.

After that he shall himself be Conquered, as it came to pass in Belshazzars time, Dan. 5.30. Darius the Emperour of the Medes taking his Kingdom.
