Verse Jeremiah 25:12. And that nation] הגוי ההוא haggoi hahu. Dr. Blayney contends that this should be translated his nation, and that ההוא hahu is the substantive pronoun used in the genitive case.

Will make it perpetual desolations] Isaiah 13:19, where the fulfilment of this prophecy is distinctly marked.
