Jeremiah 11
1. Jeremiah proclaims God's covenant;
8. rebukes the peoples' disobeying thereof;
11. prophesies evils to come upon them;
18. and upon the men of Anathoth, for conspiring to kill him.














Not even a remnant
The phrase "not even a remnant" underscores the totality of the judgment that God is pronouncing. In the Hebrew context, the word for "remnant" often refers to a small surviving group that God preserves for His purposes. Here, however, the absence of a remnant signifies complete destruction and the severity of divine judgment. This highlights the seriousness of the people's rebellion against God and serves as a sobering reminder of the consequences of turning away from His covenant.

will be left to them
The phrase "will be left to them" indicates the finality and completeness of the judgment. In the historical context, the people of Anathoth, a town associated with the priestly line and the hometown of Jeremiah, are being warned that their actions have led to a point of no return. This serves as a warning to all believers about the dangers of persistent disobedience and the importance of repentance.

because I will bring disaster
The word "disaster" in Hebrew can also be translated as "calamity" or "evil," and it is often used in the context of divine retribution. This phrase emphasizes that the disaster is not a random occurrence but a direct act of God in response to the people's sins. It reflects the biblical principle that God is just and will not allow sin to go unpunished, reinforcing the need for a righteous and holy life.

on the men of Anathoth
Anathoth was a Levitical city, and its inhabitants were expected to be leaders in spiritual matters. The mention of "the men of Anathoth" specifically points to those who should have been upholding God's law but instead were complicit in the rebellion. This serves as a cautionary tale for those in positions of spiritual leadership, reminding them of their responsibility to lead with integrity and faithfulness.

in the year of their punishment
The phrase "in the year of their punishment" suggests a specific, appointed time for judgment. This reflects the biblical theme that God’s timing is perfect and that He has set times for both judgment and redemption. It serves as a reminder that while God is patient, His justice will ultimately prevail. For believers, this is a call to live in readiness and to trust in God's sovereign timing.

(23) There shall be no remnant of them.--In Ezra 2:23; Nehemiah 7:27 we find that 128 of Anathoth returned from exile. The words must therefore be limited either to the men who had conspired against the prophet, or to the complete deportation of its inhabitants. The situation of Anathoth, about three or four miles north-east of Jerusalem, would expose it to the full fury of the invasion. The words are apparently spoken with reference to the ever-recurring burden of Isaiah's prophecy that "a remnant "should return (Isaiah 1:9; Isaiah 6:13; Isaiah 10:21). The conspirators of Anathoth were excluded from that promise.

Even the year of their visitation.--See Notes on Jeremiah 8:12; Jeremiah 10:15. . . .

Verse 23. - Even the year, etc.; better, in the year of their visitation (or, punishment), taking the accusative as that of time.
