Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 49:36

36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds, from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them towards all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come .

The Prophet threatneth the destruction of the Persians, by a Confederacy of Enemies, suppose Babylonians, Medes, &c. which should assault them on all sides, as when the wind blows at the same time from all quarters, which causeth a whirlwind which driveth the dust every way hither▪ and thither, so he saith the Persians should be scattered into all nations.
