Definitions for Jeremiah 50:33
Barnes's Jeremiah 50:33 Bible Commentary
Were oppressed - are "oppressed together: and all their captors have laid firm hold upon them: they have refused to let them go." The restoration of Israel and Judah to their land is necessary. As Babylon will not let them go, it must be broken, and its empire destroyed.
Wesley's Jeremiah 50:33 Bible Commentary
50:33 Together - Together in this place signifies no more than that they were both oppressed, or alike oppressed.
