On that day
This phrase is a prophetic marker often used in the Old Testament to denote a significant future event, usually associated with divine intervention or judgment. In the Hebrew, "on that day" (בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא) is a common eschatological term that points to the "Day of the Lord," a time when God will act decisively in history. This phrase sets the stage for a momentous occasion, emphasizing the certainty and importance of the events that will unfold.

the weeping in Jerusalem
The mention of "weeping" (מִסְפֵּ֣ד) indicates a profound expression of grief and mourning. Jerusalem, the spiritual and political center of Israel, becomes the focal point of this lamentation. Historically, Jerusalem has been a city of both great joy and deep sorrow, often reflecting the spiritual state of the nation. The weeping here suggests a collective realization of sin, loss, or impending judgment, prompting a heartfelt response from the people.

will be as great as the weeping of Hadad-rimmon
"Hadad-rimmon" refers to a location or possibly a deity associated with mourning rites. The weeping at Hadad-rimmon is traditionally linked to the mourning for King Josiah, who was killed in battle at Megiddo. Josiah was a righteous king, and his death marked a significant turning point for Judah. The comparison implies that the mourning in Jerusalem will be as intense and widespread as that historical event, underscoring the gravity of the situation.

in the plain of Megiddo
Megiddo is an ancient city strategically located at a crossroads of military and trade routes. It is historically significant as a site of numerous battles and is often associated with conflict and judgment. The "plain of Megiddo" (בְּבִקְעַ֥ת מְגִדּֽוֹן) evokes images of warfare and loss, serving as a backdrop for the prophesied mourning. In Christian eschatology, Megiddo is also linked to Armageddon, the site of the final battle between good and evil, further emphasizing the prophetic and apocalyptic nature of this passage.

Verse 11. - As if the above comparisons were not strong enough, the prophet presents a new one, referring to an historical event, which occasioned a universal mourning in Jerusalem. As the mourning of (at) Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. This is generally supposed to refer to the death of King Josiah of a wound received at Megiddo, in the battle with Pharaoh-Necho ( B.C. 60) ),and to the national lamentation made for him and long observed on the anniversary of the calamity (see 2 Kings 23:29; 2 Chronicles 35:20-25). This universal and perennial mourning is a figure of the continual remembrance of the death of Christ in the Church. There is a difficulty about the identification of Hadadrimmon. St. Jerome says it was a place in the Plain of Megiddo, near Jezreel, and known in his day by the name of Maximianopolis. This is supposed to be Rummaneh, seven miles northwest of Jezreel, on the southern edge of the Plain of Esdraelon. But the identification is far from certain. The Assyrian name given to the place may, as Lowe suggests, be a confirmation of the post-exilian origin of the prophecy. The site of Megiddo also is undetermined, though Condor suggests Mujedda, a ruined city about three miles south of Bethshean. The opinion that the name Hadadrimmon is that of a Syrian or Phoenician god, whose rites were celebrated as those of Adonis ("the weeping for Tammuz" of Ezekiel 8:14), is preposterous; and the idea that the prophet would thus refer to the worship of an abominable idol is one that could have occurred only to disbelievers in revelation. The LXX., mistaking the text, gives, ὡς κοπετὸς ῤοῶνος ἐν πεδίῳ ἐκκοπτομένου, "as mourning for a pomegranate cut off in the plain."
