During the height of Babylon’s power it became a title that was applied to Marduk who was Babylon’s chief deity. As a title it means “Lord.” Here it is a poetical parallel reference to Marduk mentioned in the next line.","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2050%3A2/3"}

Contingents of these many nations were included in her army and reference is made to them in 50:9 and 51:27-28 . There is also some irony involved here because the “enemy from the north” referred to so often in Jeremiah (cf. 1:14; 4:6; 6:1 ) has been identified with Babylon (cf. 25:9 ). Here in a kind of talionic justice Judah’s nemesis from the north will be attacked and devastated by an enemy from the north.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2050%3A3/1"}

It is generally agreed that the names of these two regions were chosen for their potential for wordplay. Merathaim probably refers to a region in southern Babylon near where the Tigris and Euphrates come together before they empty into the Persian Gulf. It was known for its briny waters. In Hebrew the word would mean “double rebellion” and would stand as an epithet for the land of Babylon as a whole. Pekod refers to an Aramean people who lived on the eastern bank of the lower Tigris River. They are mentioned often in Assyrian texts and are mentioned in Ezek 23:23 as allies of Babylon. In Hebrew the word would mean “punishment.” As an epithet for the land of Babylon it would refer to the fact that Babylon was to be punished for her double rebellion against the Lord .","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2050%3A21/3"}
