Jeremiah16:16
Ver. 16. Behold I will ſend for many fiſhers &c.] ſc. To incloſe in their [non-Latin text not transcribed], large and capacious nets, whole ſhoales of them together. Theſe were the Chaldees whom God ſent for, arcano instinctu cordium, by putting it into their hearts to come up againſt Jeruſalem: Howbeit, ſome by fiſhers underſtand the Egyptians, who lived much by fiſhing: and by hunters the Chaldeans, as Gen. 10.8, 9.
And they ſhall hunt them] Out of all their ſtarting holes and lurking places: as the Romans afterwards pul'd them out of their privies, &c.
