Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Nebuchadnezzar . . . my servant.--See Note on Jeremiah 25:9 for the title thus given. The special stress laid on "the beasts of the field" is, perhaps, connected with the resistance of the nations to the levies made by the Babylonian officers upon their horses and cattle, or their claim to use the land they had subdued, after the manner which we see depicted on Assyrian sculptures, as a hunting-ground. Compare especially the account of Tiglath-Pileser I.'s hunting expedition in Records of the Past, xi., p. 9.
