THE HOLY BIBLE Douay-Rheims

Notes on Prophecy of Jeremias (Author Bishop Richard Challoner (ed.))

23:34 Burden of the Lord: This expression is here rejected and disallowed, at least for those times: because it was then used in mockery and contempt by the false prophets, and unbelieving people, who ridiculed the repeated threats of Jeremias under the name of his burdens.
