Haydock's commentary
Ambassador; Jeremias: or rather this is a personification of the passions, which would sufficiently prompt the Chaldeans. (Calmet)
A good angel might urge them to execute the divine decrees. (Theodoret)
The greatest armies are thus made use of by Providence, without approving of their malicious designs.
