The "LORD of Hosts" emphasizes God's sovereignty and power, often associated with His role as a divine warrior. This title is used frequently in the Old Testament to denote God's authority over all heavenly and earthly armies. The phrase "on that day" is often used in prophetic literature to refer to the "Day of the Lord," a time of judgment and salvation.I will break the yoke off their necks The "yoke" symbolizes oppression and servitude, often used in the context of slavery or subjugation. In the historical context, this refers to the Babylonian captivity, where the Israelites were under foreign domination. The breaking of the yoke signifies liberation and freedom, a common theme in the prophetic books where God promises to deliver His people from bondage.and tear off their bonds "Bonds" further illustrate the constraints and limitations placed upon the Israelites by their captors. This imagery of tearing off bonds suggests a complete and forceful removal of oppression. It echoes the Exodus narrative, where God delivered the Israelites from Egyptian slavery, and points to a future hope of ultimate freedom.and no longer will strangers enslave them The term "strangers" refers to foreign nations, specifically the Babylonians in this context. Historically, Israel faced subjugation by various empires, including Assyria and Babylon. This promise of no longer being enslaved by foreigners is a reassurance of God's protection and the restoration of Israel's sovereignty. It also foreshadows the Messianic hope where ultimate freedom is found in Christ, who breaks the spiritual bondage of sin.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord_of_hosts.htm">The LORD of Hosts</a> This title emphasizes God's supreme authority and power over all heavenly and earthly armies.

The second and third person are strangely mingled. Jehovah speaks to Israel, "thy bonds," "thy yoke," and "his yoke" is that of the oppressor, i.e., of the Babylonian ruler, and then, the person changing, "strangers shall no more get service done for them by him" i.e., by Israel. The prophet echoes the words of <a href="/isaiah/10-27.htm" title="And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.">Isaiah 10:27</a>.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/jeremiah/30.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 8. - His yoke.
