耶利米书 50:20 CUNPSS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 50:9-20

God is here by his prophet, as afterwards in his providence, proceeding in his controversy with Babylon. Observe, I. The commission and charge given to the instruments that were to be employed in destroying Babylon. The army that is to do it is called an assembly of great nations (Jer. 50:9), the Medes and Persians, and all their allies and auxiliaries; it is called an assembly, because regularly formed by the divine will and counsel to do this execution. God will raise them up to do it, will... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 50:20

In those days, and in that time, saith the Lord ,.... When mystical Babylon shall be destroyed, and the Jews will be converted and brought into their land, and be in possession of every temporal and spiritual mercy; it will then most clearly appear that they are the favourites of heaven, and all their sins are forgiven them, as follows: the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none ; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found ; not that they will be... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 50:20

In those days and in that time - This phrase appears to take in the whole of an epoch, from its commencement to its end. See Jeremiah 50:4 . I will pardon them - So as to deliver them from their captivity, and exact no more punishment from them whom I reserve, namely, the remnant left in the Babylonish captivity. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 50:20

Verse 20 As I have already said, the Prophet now shows the primary cause why God purposed to deal so kindly and mercifully with his people, even because he would remit their sins. And doubtless whatever is said of the remission of sins is cold and unmeaning, except we be first convinced that God is reconciled and propitious to us. The unbelieving indeed seek no other thing than to be relieved from their evils, as the sick who require nothing from their physician but that he should immediately... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 50:1-46

Jeremiah 50:1-46 . AND 51. ON BABYLON . This attitude of reserve is not assumed without substantial grounds, derived from two sources—the epilogue ( Jeremiah 51:59-64 ) and the prophecy itself. First, as to the epilogue. It is clear that the words, "and they shall be weary," are out of place in Jeremiah 51:64 , and that they are wrongly repeated from Jeremiah 51:58 . But how came they to be repeated? Because, originally, the declaration, "Thus far are the words of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 50:6-20

Israel as lost sheep. This is a favourite theocratic title of Israel—the sheep of God's pasture. In itself an appeal to the traditional pastoral character of the nation, and to the marvellous guidance of their forefathers by Jehovah through the wilderness. He was the Shepherd of Israel. The extent of their apostasy is here described. I. IT WAS COMPLETE . 1 . They had wandered. The allurements of idolatry had led them on and on, and they had at length yielded to them. They... read more

The forgiveness of God. These words are a beautiful setting forth of God's abundant pardon. Concerning it note how— I. IT BRINGS UNSPEAKABLE JOY . In the former part of this chapter (cf. Jeremiah 50:6 ) the prophet has pictured Israel and Judah like to a driven, hunted flock of sheep, never allowed to rest in peace, worried by fierce dogs, and hence in perpetual distress. But here there is a complete contrast. The flock feeds on Carmel and Bashan, the richest pastures. The... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 50:19-20

The feeding places of the flock. Consider— I. WHAT JEHOVAH HAD PROVIDED AND THE PEOPLE HAD LOST . Carmel and Bashan, Ephraim and Gilead, were not something altogether new. They were memories of the past as well as hopes of the future. Israel had been a scattered sheep. Out of Christ not only are we ourselves lost, but we have lost the use of the appropriate possessions of humanity. Really what God does in restoring his people is to bring them to something a great deal... read more
