The Illusion of Compromise
Commentators explain this verse depicts the false peace Judah bought through worldly alliances. The 'voice of a multitude' likely refers to the tumult of an invading army that was temporarily quieted by tribute. The bracelets and crowns were not true blessings, but symbols of Judah's spiritual adultery and subjugation to pagan nations, who are described as drunken revelers. This highlights how compromising with the world leads to a deceptive and degrading security.
