Jer 14:4 | King James | Because the ground is chapt, for there was no rain in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads. |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Is chapt - Rather, is dismayed. "The ground" is used metaphorically for the people who until the ground. In the earth - i. e., "in the land." |
