RESTORATION OF THE JEWS FROM BABYLON AFTER ITS CAPTURE, AND RAISING UP OF MESSIAH. (Jer. 30:1-24)
Write . . . in a book--After the destruction of Jerusalem Jeremiah is not ordered as heretofore to speak, but to write the succeeding prophecy (Jer 30:4, &c.), so as thereby it might be read by his countrymen wheresoever they might be in their dispersion. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Write ... in a book - To be read and meditated upon by them in private. This makes it exceedingly probable that the date of these two chapters was also the 10th year of Zedekiah, immediately after the purchase of the field from Hanameel.
All the words - i. e., the scroll was to be a summary of whatever of hope and mercy had been contained in previous predictions. |
| The Scofield Bible Commentary, by Cyrus Ingerson Scofield, [1917] |
Write
Three "writings" by Jeremiah are to be distinguished:
(1) This is impersonal -- a general prophecy, and probably the earliest. (Jer 30:1-31); (Jer 30:40).
(2) The prophecy destroyed by Jehoiakim. (Jer 1:1-36); (Jer 1:23).
(3) The destroyed writing re-written doubtless the writing preserved to us. (Jer 36:27). |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book - The book here recommended I believe to be the thirtieth and thirty-first chapters; for among the Hebrews any portion of writing, in which the subject was finished, however small, was termed ספר sepher, a Book, a treatise or discourse. |
4 And these are the words [01697] that the LORD [03068] spake [01696] concerning Israel [03478] and concerning Judah [03063].
27 Then the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] came to Jeremiah [03414], after [0310] that the king [04428] had burned [08313] the roll [04039], and the words [01697] which Baruch [01263] wrote [03789] at the mouth [06310] of Jeremiah [03414], saying [0559],

1 The words [01697] of Jeremiah [03414] the son [01121] of Hilkiah [02518], of the priests [03548] that were in Anathoth [06068] in the land [0776] of Benjamin [01144]:
2 To whom the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] came in the days [03117] of Josiah [02977] the son [01121] of Amon [0526] king [04428] of Judah [03063], in the thirteenth [07969] [06240] year [08141] of his reign [04427].
3 It came also in the days [03117] of Jehoiakim [03079] the son [01121] of Josiah [02977] king [04428] of Judah [03063], unto the end [08552] of the eleventh [06249] [06240] year [08141] of Zedekiah [06667] the son [01121] of Josiah [02977] king [04428] of Judah [03063], unto the carrying away [01540] of Jerusalem [03389] captive [01540] in the fifth [02549] month [02320].
4 Then the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] came unto me, saying [0559],
5 Before [02962] I formed [03335] thee in the belly [0990] I knew [03045] thee; and before thou camest forth [03318] out of the womb [07358] I sanctified [06942] thee, and I ordained [05414] thee a prophet [05030] unto the nations [01471].
6 Then said [0559] I, Ah [0162], Lord [0136] GOD [03069]! behold, I cannot [03045] speak [01696]: for I am a child [05288].
7 But the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto me, Say [0559] not, I am a child [05288]: for thou shalt go [03212] to all that I shall send [07971] thee, and whatsoever I command [06680] thee thou shalt speak [01696].
8 Be not afraid [03372] of their faces [06440]: for I am with thee to deliver [05337] thee, saith [05002] the LORD [03068].
9 Then the LORD [03068] put forth [07971] his hand [03027], and touched [05060] my mouth [06310]. And the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto me, Behold, I have put [05414] my words [01697] in thy mouth [06310].
10 See [07200], I have this day [03117] set [06485] thee over the nations [01471] and over the kingdoms [04467], to root out [05428], and to pull down [05422], and to destroy [06], and to throw down [02040], to build [01129], and to plant [05193].
11 Moreover the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] came unto me, saying [0559], Jeremiah [03414], what seest [07200] thou? And I said [0559], I see [07200] a rod [04731] of an almond tree [08247].
12 Then said [0559] the LORD [03068] unto me, Thou hast well [03190] seen [07200]: for I will hasten [08245] my word [01697] to perform [06213] it.
13 And the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] came unto me the second time [08145], saying [0559], What seest [07200] thou? And I said [0559], I see [07200] a seething [05301] pot [05518]; and the face [06440] thereof is toward [06440] the north [06828].
14 Then the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto me, Out of the north [06828] an evil [07451] shall break forth [06605] upon all the inhabitants [03427] of the land [0776].
15 For, lo, I will call [07121] all the families [04940] of the kingdoms [04467] of the north [06828], saith [05002] the LORD [03068]; and they shall come [0935], and they shall set [05414] every one [0376] his throne [03678] at the entering [06607] of the gates [08179] of Jerusalem [03389], and against all the walls [02346] thereof round about [05439], and against all the cities [05892] of Judah [03063].
16 And I will utter [01696] my judgments [04941] against them touching [05921] all their wickedness [07451], who have forsaken [05800] me, and have burned incense [06999] unto other [0312] gods [0430], and worshipped [07812] the works [04639] of their own hands [03027].
17 Thou therefore gird up [0247] thy loins [04975], and arise [06965], and speak [01696] unto them all that I command [06680] thee: be not dismayed [02865] at their faces [06440], lest I confound [02865] thee before [06440] them.
18 For, behold, I [0589] have made [05414] thee this day [03117] a defenced [04013] city [05892], and an iron [01270] pillar [05982], and brasen [05178] walls [02346] against the whole land [0776], against the kings [04428] of Judah [03063], against the princes [08269] thereof, against the priests [03548] thereof, and against the people [05971] of the land [0776].
19 And they shall fight [03898] against thee; but they shall not prevail [03201] against thee; for I am with thee, saith [05002] the LORD [03068], to deliver [05337] thee.

1 The word [01697] that came to Jeremiah [03414] from the LORD [03068], saying [0559],
2 Thus speaketh [0559] the LORD [03068] God [0430] of Israel [03478], saying [0559], Write [03789] thee all the words [01697] that I have spoken [01696] unto thee in a book [05612].
3 For, lo, the days [03117] come [0935], saith [05002] the LORD [03068], that I will bring again [07725] the captivity [07622] of my people [05971] Israel [03478] and Judah [03063], saith [0559] the LORD [03068]: and I will cause them to return [07725] to the land [0776] that I gave [05414] to their fathers [01], and they shall possess [03423] it.
4 And these are the words [01697] that the LORD [03068] spake [01696] concerning Israel [03478] and concerning Judah [03063].
5 For thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068]; We have heard [08085] a voice [06963] of trembling [02731], of fear [06343], and not of peace [07965].
6 Ask [07592] ye now, and see [07200] whether a man [02145] doth travail with child [03205]? wherefore do I see [07200] every man [01397] with his hands [03027] on his loins [02504], as a woman in travail [03205], and all faces [06440] are turned [02015] into paleness [03420]?
7 Alas [01945]! for that day [03117] is great [01419], so that [0369] none is like it: it is even the time [06256] of Jacob's [03290] trouble [06869]; but he shall be saved [03467] out of it.
8 For it shall come to pass in that day [03117], saith [05002] the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635], that I will break [07665] his yoke [05923] from off thy neck [06677], and will burst [05423] thy bonds [04147], and strangers [02114] shall no more serve [05647] themselves of him:
9 But they shall serve [05647] the LORD [03068] their God [0430], and David [01732] their king [04428], whom I will raise up [06965] unto them.
10 Therefore fear [03372] thou not, O my servant [05650] Jacob [03290], saith [05002] the LORD [03068]; neither be dismayed [02865], O Israel [03478]: for, lo, I will save [03467] thee from afar [07350], and thy seed [02233] from the land [0776] of their captivity [07628]; and Jacob [03290] shall return [07725], and shall be in rest [08252], and be quiet [07599], and none shall make him afraid [02729].
11 For I am with thee, saith [05002] the LORD [03068], to save [03467] thee: though I make [06213] a full end [03617] of all nations [01471] whither I have scattered [06327] thee, yet will I not make [06213] a full end [03617] of thee: but I will correct [03256] thee in measure [04941], and will not leave thee altogether [05352] unpunished [05352].
12 For thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068], Thy bruise [07667] is incurable [0605], and thy wound [04347] is grievous [02470].
13 There is none to plead [01777] thy cause [01779], that thou mayest be bound up [04205]: thou hast no healing [08585] medicines [07499].
14 All thy lovers [0157] have forgotten [07911] thee; they seek [01875] thee not; for I have wounded [05221] thee with the wound [04347] of an enemy [0341], with the chastisement [04148] of a cruel one [0394], for the multitude [07230] of thine iniquity [05771]; because thy sins [02403] were increased [06105].
15 Why criest [02199] thou for thine affliction [07667]? thy sorrow [04341] is incurable [0605] for the multitude [07230] of thine iniquity [05771]: because thy sins [02403] were increased [06105], I have done [06213] these things unto thee.
16 Therefore all they that devour [0398] thee shall be devoured [0398]; and all thine adversaries [06862], every one of them, shall go [03212] into captivity [07628]; and they that spoil [07601] [08154] thee shall be a spoil [04933], and all that prey [0962] upon thee will I give [05414] for a prey [0957].
17 For I will restore [05927] health [0724] unto thee, and I will heal [07495] thee of thy wounds [04347], saith [05002] the LORD [03068]; because they called [07121] thee an Outcast [05080], saying, This is Zion [06726], whom no man seeketh after [01875].
18 Thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068]; Behold, I will bring again [07725] the captivity [07622] of Jacob's [03290] tents [0168], and have mercy [07355] on his dwellingplaces [04908]; and the city [05892] shall be builded [01129] upon her own heap [08510], and the palace [0759] shall remain [03427] after the manner [04941] thereof.
19 And out of them shall proceed [03318] thanksgiving [08426] and the voice [06963] of them that make merry [07832]: and I will multiply [07235] them, and they shall not be few [04591]; I will also glorify [03513] them, and they shall not be small [06819].
20 Their children [01121] also shall be as aforetime [06924], and their congregation [05712] shall be established [03559] before [06440] me, and I will punish [06485] all that oppress [03905] them.
21 And their nobles [0117] shall be of themselves, and their governor [04910] shall proceed [03318] from the midst [07130] of them; and I will cause him to draw near [07126], and he shall approach [05066] unto me: for who is this that engaged [06148] his heart [03820] to approach [05066] unto me? saith [05002] the LORD [03068].
22 And ye shall be my people [05971], and I will be your God [0430].
23 Behold, the whirlwind [05591] of the LORD [03068] goeth forth [03318] with fury [02534], a continuing [01641] whirlwind [05591]: it shall fall with pain [02342] upon the head [07218] of the wicked [07563].
24 The fierce [02740] anger [0639] of the LORD [03068] shall not return [07725], until he have done [06213] it, and until he have performed [06965] the intents [04209] of his heart [03820]: in the latter [0319] days [03117] ye shall consider [0995] it.
