Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make him afraid. |

from afar--Be not afraid as if the distance of the places whither ye are to be dispersed precludes the possibility of return.
seed--Though through the many years of captivity intervening, you yourselves may not see the restoration, the promise shall be fulfilled to your seed, primarily at the return from Babylon, fully at the final restoration.
quiet . . . none . . . make . . . afraid-- (Jer 23:6; Zac 14:11). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
These two verses are considered by some very similar in style to the last 27 chapters of Isaiah. The contrast, however, between the full end made with the pagan, and the certainty that Israel shall never so perish, is one of Jeremiah's most common topics.
Jer 30:11
In measure - See the Jer 10:24 note. |
11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
24 O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
11 For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
