Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on Jer 51:56

“Because the spoiler is come upon her, that is, upon Babylon, and her valiant men are taken, and their bow is weakened, because the Lord, who is a strong revenger, will surely repay.”

“taken--when they were least expecting it, and in such a way that resistance was impossible.”
