“Double Rebellion”
☩Prophetic Use
'Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: waste and utterly destroy after them, saith the LORD' (Jeremiah 50:21). The name is a wordplay: southern Babylon was called 'land of the bitter river,' but Jeremiah doubles it to emphasize Babylon's deserved judgment.
