(Jer 23:12).
the year of . . . visitation--The Septuagint translates, "in the year of their," &c., that is, at the time when I shall visit them in wrath. JEROME supports English Version. "Year" often means a determined time.
He ventures to expostulate with Jehovah as to the prosperity of the wicked, who had plotted against his life (Jer 12:1-4); in reply he is told that he will have worse to endure, and that from his own relatives (Jer 12:5-6). The heaviest judgments, however, would be inflicted on the faithless people (Jer 12:7-13); and then on the nations co-operating with the Chaldeans against Judah, with, however, a promise of mercy on repentance (Jer 12:14-17). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| No remnant - 128 men of Anathoth returned from exile Ezr 2:23; Neh 7:27. Jeremiah's denunciation was limited to those who had sought his life. The year of their visitation would be the year of the siege of Jerusalem, when Anathoth being in its immediate vicinity would have its share of the horrors of war. |

| The year of their visitation - This punishment shall come in that year in which I shall visit their iniquities upon them. |
14 Thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068] against all mine evil [07451] neighbours [07934], that touch [05060] the inheritance [05159] which I have caused my people [05971] Israel [03478] to inherit [05157]; Behold, I will pluck them out [05428] of their land [0127], and pluck out [05428] the house [01004] of Judah [03063] from among [08432] them.
15 And it shall come to pass, after [0310] that I have plucked them out [05428] I will return [07725], and have compassion [07355] on them, and will bring them again [07725], every man [0376] to his heritage [05159], and every man [0376] to his land [0776].
16 And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently [03925] learn [03925] the ways [01870] of my people [05971], to swear [07650] by my name [08034], The LORD [03068] liveth [02416]; as they taught [03925] my people [05971] to swear [07650] by Baal [01168]; then shall they be built [01129] in the midst [08432] of my people [05971].
17 But if they will not obey [08085], I will utterly [05428] pluck up [05428] and destroy [06] that nation [01471], saith [05002] the LORD [03068].
7 I have forsaken [05800] mine house [01004], I have left [05203] mine heritage [05159]; I have given [05414] the dearly beloved [03033] of my soul [05315] into the hand [03709] of her enemies [0341].
8 Mine heritage [05159] is unto me as a lion [0738] in the forest [03293]; it crieth out [05414] [06963] against me: therefore have I hated [08130] it.
9 Mine heritage [05159] is unto me as a speckled [06641] bird [05861], the birds [05861] round about [05439] are against her; come [03212] ye, assemble [0622] all the beasts [02416] of the field [07704], come [0857] to devour [0402].
10 Many [07227] pastors [07462] have destroyed [07843] my vineyard [03754], they have trodden [0947] my portion [02513] under foot [0947], they have made [05414] my pleasant [02532] portion [02513] a desolate [08077] wilderness [04057].
11 They have made [07760] it desolate [08076], and being desolate [08077] it mourneth [056] unto me; the whole land [0776] is made desolate [08074], because no man [0376] layeth [07760] it to heart [03820].
12 The spoilers [07703] are come [0935] upon all high places [08205] through the wilderness [04057]: for the sword [02719] of the LORD [03068] shall devour [0398] from the one end [07097] of the land [0776] even to the other end [07097] of the land [0776]: no flesh [01320] shall have peace [07965].
13 They have sown [02232] wheat [02406], but shall reap [07114] thorns [06975]: they have put themselves to pain [02470], but shall not profit [03276]: and they shall be ashamed [0954] of your revenues [08393] because of the fierce [02740] anger [0639] of the LORD [03068].
5 If thou hast run [07323] with the footmen [07273], and they have wearied [03811] thee, then how canst thou contend [08474] with horses [05483]? and if in the land [0776] of peace [07965], wherein thou trustedst [0982], they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do [06213] in the swelling [01347] of Jordan [03383]?
6 For even thy brethren [0251], and the house [01004] of thy father [01], even they have dealt treacherously [0898] with thee; yea, they have called [07121] a multitude [04392] after [0310] thee: believe [0539] them not, though they speak [01696] fair words [02896] unto thee.
1 Righteous [06662] art thou, O LORD [03068], when I plead [07378] with thee: yet let me talk [01696] with thee of thy judgments [04941]: Wherefore doth the way [01870] of the wicked [07563] prosper [06743]? wherefore are all they happy [07951] that deal very [0899] treacherously [0898]?
2 Thou hast planted [05193] them, yea, they have taken root [08327]: they grow [03212], yea, they bring forth [06213] fruit [06529]: thou art near [07138] in their mouth [06310], and far from [07350] their reins [03629].
3 But thou, O LORD [03068], knowest [03045] me: thou hast seen [07200] me, and tried [0974] mine heart [03820] toward thee: pull them out [05423] like sheep [06629] for the slaughter [02878], and prepare [06942] them for the day [03117] of slaughter [02028].
4 How long shall the land [0776] mourn [056], and the herbs [06212] of every field [07704] wither [03001], for the wickedness [07451] of them that dwell [03427] therein? the beasts [0929] are consumed [05595], and the birds [05775]; because they said [0559], He shall not see [07200] our last end [0319].
12 Wherefore their way [01870] shall be unto them as slippery [02519] ways in the darkness [0653]: they shall be driven on [01760], and fall [05307] therein: for I will bring [0935] evil [07451] upon them, even the year [08141] of their visitation [06486], saith [05002] the LORD [03068].
27 The men [0582] of Anathoth [06068], an hundred [03967] twenty [06242] and eight [08083].
23 The men [0582] of Anathoth [06068], an hundred [03967] twenty [06242] and eight [08083].
