Albert Barnes Commentary Jeremiah 1:16

"And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, in that they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands." — Jeremiah 1:16 (ASV)

In accordance with the custom of law courts, the crimes of the guilty city are mentioned in the sentence. The charges brought against her are three:

1. The desertion of the true God.
2. The offering incense to false gods.
3. The making obeisance to, or bowing down (2 Kings 5:18) before images of human workmanship.
