Exegesis

The locative beyaarah {בְּיַעְרָהּ | bə-ya-ʿrāh} and subsequent Qal perfect veokhlah {וְאָכְלָה | wə-’āḵə-lāh} depict total devastation, extended by kol seviveha {כָּל־סְבִיבֶיהָ | kōl sə-ḇî-ṿê-hā} denoting complete encirclement. The Hebrew structure foregrounds the inevitability and comprehensiveness of divine judgment.

In contextJeremiah 21:14

I will punish you in keeping with the fruit of your deeds, declares the LORD ; I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it will consume everything around her.
