Jump to Previous Book Israel Speaketh Speaks Words WriteJump to Next Book Israel Speaketh Speaks Words WriteJeremiah 30 1. God shows Jeremiah the return of the Jews.4. After their trouble they shall have deliverance. 10. He comforts Jacob. 18. Their return shall be gracious. 23. Wrath shall fall on the wicked. “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says” This phrase establishes the divine authority behind the message. The Hebrew word for "LORD" is "YHWH," the sacred and personal name of God, emphasizing His covenant relationship with Israel. "The God of Israel" reaffirms His unique relationship with the nation, reminding them of His promises and faithfulness throughout history. This introduction sets the tone for the message as one of divine origin, demanding attention and reverence. “Write in a book” “all the words” “I have spoken to you.” (2) Write thee all the words . . .--The opening words emphasise the fact that what follows was not spoken at first, like Jeremiah 27, 28, in the presence of the people, but was from the first committed to writing. There is no definite point at which we may be certain that the section ends, and there is room for many conjectures as to interpolations here and there, but the opening of Jeremiah 32 suggests the conclusion that it takes in the whole of Jeremiah 30, 31. The general character of the prophecy, probably in part consequent on the acceptance of the prophet's teaching by the exiles of Babylon, is one of blessing and restoration, and he is thus led on to the great utterance which, from one point of view, makes him more the prophet of the Gospel even than Isaiah. It is here that we find that promise of a New Covenant (Jeremiah 31:31) which both as a word and a fact has been prominent in the history of Christendom.Verse 2. - Write thee all the words... in a book. The form of expression leaves it doubtful whether a summary of all Jeremiah's previous discourses is intended, or merely of the promises concerning Israel and Judah which he had just received. There are, no doubt, numerous allusions to preceding chapters, but ver. 5 seems rather to favour the latter view. The word rendered "book" will equally suit a short discourse like the present (comp. Jeremiah 51:60) and a large collection of prophecies as in Jeremiah 36:2. Observe, the discourse was to be written down at once, without having been delivered orally; it was to be laid up as a pledge that God would interpose for his people (comp. Isaiah 30:8; Habakkuk 2:2, 3). |
