For he has brought a nation upon them from far, a shameless nation, and of a strange language, who neither reverenced old man, nor pitied child.
All Commentaries on Baruch 4:15 Go To Baruch 4
Olympiodorus of Alexandria
AD 570
God “removed our sins from us,” but we are attracted to them, and for them we are punished. It says that he sends, because nothing happens without God’s consent. The “perverse nation” was first the Babylonians, then the Romans. This can also be understood as those who teach false knowledge, resorting to the deceptions of the sophists.
