I will search Jerusalem] I will cause the Chaldeans to seek out the most hidden things that be in Jerusalem, and that most exactly: As Luke 15:8. sttled on their lees] Heb. curded, or thickened. A phrase taken from such liquors, as grow thick when being powred out of one vessel into an other they stand long, Jeremiah 48:11. to signifie, either the gathering together of riches in Jerusalem, which for many years before had not been taken, nor pillaged. Or the stupidity and carnall securitie of the inhabitants, to which seems to be referred the following words of the profane men, who denied Gods providence, or took no notice of it. See Psalms 119:70.
