פּירוש אויף ירמיהו 46:15

“Why are your strong ones swept away? They do not stand, etc.” [46:15]. Why have all your strong ones been swept away and they could not withstand it? I will give you an explanation. “Because the Lord has thrust him down” [46:15]. Because the Holy One himself thrust him down and therefore the heroes could not withstand it.

been swept away? Heb. נסחף. Your mighty men have been swept away and have slid. Cf. “sweeping (סֹחֵף) rain” (Prov. 28:3); “His field has been inundated (נסתחפה)” (Kethuboth 1:6). Menahem (Machbereth p. 126) classified it as an expression of complete destruction, and so did he classify מטר סחף. Dunash, however, interprets מטר סחף like מטר סועף, cutting rain. Cf. “Lops off (מְסָעֵף) the branches with a saw” (Isa. 10:33).
