Jeremiah 47:3

At the noise, &c.— At the clapping, or clattering sound of the hoofs of his horses, &c. The fathers look not back, &c. Every one is so possessed with a sense of his own danger, that he does not think of those who are most nearly and tenderly related to him. Compare chap. Jeremiah 9:4. Micah 7:5. Matthew 10:35.
