John Gill Commentary Jeremiah 13:26

"Therefore will I also uncover thy skirts upon thy face, and thy shame shall appear." — Jeremiah 13:26 (ASV)

Therefore will I discover your skirts upon your face Turn them up, or throw them over the head or face; that is, expose to public shame and disgrace; which was done when their city and temple were burnt, and they were carried captive; from which it follows: that your shame may appear ; that their sins might appear to themselves and others, of which they had reason to be ashamed. The allusion is to the treatment which captive women sometimes meet with, or adulterous women, to which the Jews are here compared. The Targum is, "and I also will reveal the confusion of your sin upon your face, and your shame shall be seen."
