Carchemish
Jeremiah 46:2
46:2 Carchemish. Carchemish, on the upper Euphrates, had once been a Hittite capital. It was here, almost immediately after this prophecy of Jeremiah, that the armies of Babylon defeated the invading Egyptians (605 B.C.), the event which inaugurated the great neo-Babylonian empire of Nebuchadnezzar.
