Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 29. - Shall tremble and sorrow. The Hebrew has "trembled and sorrowed" (or, "quaked and writhed for pain"); and in the sequel, have stood (i.e. been ratified by the event, as Jeremiah 44:28). The prophet here, as so often, regards what is still future as past from the point of view of eternity.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(29) And the land shall tremble and sorrow.--The verbs in the Hebrew are in the past tense, the prophet seeing, as it were, the very event which he portrays passing before him in his vision.
