Charles Ellicott Commentary Jeremiah 10:7

"Who should not fear thee, O King of the nations? for to thee doth it appertain; forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like unto thee." — Jeremiah 10:7 (ASV)

King of nations. —Emphatically, “King of the heathen,” expressing the universal sovereignty of Jehovah in contrast with the thought that He was the God of the Jews only. (Compare Romans 3:29.)

To thee doth it appertain. —Better, for it is yours, i.e., the kingdom over the heathen implied in the title just given.

The wise men. —The word “men” is better omitted. Jehovah is not compared with the sages of the heathen only, but with all to whom they looked as sources and givers of wisdom.

In all their kingdoms. —Better, in all their sovereignty.
