Definitions for Jeremiah 15:15
Clarke's Jeremiah 15:15 Bible Commentary
O Lord - remember me, and visit me - Let me not be carried away into captivity; and it does not appear that he had ever been taken to Babylon. After the capture of the city he went into Egypt; and either died there, or was put to death by his countrymen.
Barnes's Jeremiah 15:15 Bible Commentary
This is the prayer of a man in bitter grief, whose human nature cannot at present submit to the divine will. God's long-suffering toward the wicked seemed to the prophet to be the abandonment of himself to death; justice itself required that one who was suffering contumely for God's sake should be delivered.
Rebuke - i. e., reproach, contumely.
Wesley's Jeremiah 15:15 Bible Commentary
15:15 Thou knowest - My sincerity, or my sufferings. Visit me - With thy love.
