Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed; rather, he that is bent down hasteneth to be released; i.e. such of the exiles as were cramped and bent by fetters, or by the stocks, would speedily, on the fall of Babylon, obtain their release. They would not "die unto the pit," i.e. so as to belong to the pit and to be east into it, but would live and have a sufficiency of sustenance.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) The captive exile.--Literally, he that is bowed down, i.e., bound in fetters. The "pit," as in the case of Jeremiah (Jeremiah 38:6), is the underground dungeon, in which the prisoner was too often left to starve.
