Charles Ellicott Commentary Jeremiah 27:22

"They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be, until the day that I visit them, saith Jehovah; then will I bring them up, and restore them to this place." — Jeremiah 27:22 (ASV)

They shall be carried to Babylon. —The fulfillment of the prediction is recorded in 2 Kings 25:13–17.

Until the day that I visit them. —The date is not given definitely, but seventy years had already been named as the period between the plunder and the restoration (Jeremiah 25:12). Here the undefined vagueness of “the day that I will visit them” is contrasted with the equally indefinite but more exciting “shortly” of the false prophets (Jeremiah 27:16).
