Commentary for Jeremiah 6:2

הַנָּוָה֙ וְהַמְּעֻנָּגָ֔ה דָּמִ֖יתִי בַּת־צִיּֽוֹן׃

The comely and delicate one, The daughter of Zion, will I cut off.

Rashi on Jeremiah

The comely and the delicate one have I destroyed Heb. דמיתי. Jonathan renders it as an expression related to (25:37) “And the dwellings of peace shall be destroyed (ונדמוּ).” Also (47:5), “Ashkelon has been destroyed (נדמתה).”
