Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 6:9-17

The heads of this paragraph are the very same with those of the last; for precept must be upon precept and line upon line. I. The ruin of Judah and Jerusalem is here threatened. We had before the haste which the Chaldea army made to the war (Jer. 6:4, 5); now here we have the havoc made by the war. How lamentable are the desolations here described! The enemy shall so long quarter among them, and be so insatiable in their thirst after blood and treasure, that they shall seize all they can meet... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 6:15

Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination ?.... This seems chiefly, and in the first place, to respect the false prophets and wicked priests; who when they committed idolatry, or any other sin, and led the people into the same by their doctrine and example, yet, when reproved for it, were not ashamed, being given up to a judicial hardness of heart: nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush ; they were men of impudent faces, they had a whore's forehead; there... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 6:16

Thus saith the Lord, stand ye in the ways, and see ,.... These are the words of the Lord to the people, whom he would have judge for themselves, and not be blindly led by the false prophets and priests; directing them to do what men should, when they are in a place where two or more ways meet, and know not which way to take; they should make a short stop, and look to the way mark or way post, which points whither each path leads, and so accordingly proceed. Now, in religious things, the... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 6:16

Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see - Let us observe the metaphor. A traveler is going to a particular city; he comes to a place where the road divides into several paths, he is afraid of going astray; he stops short, - endeavors to find out the right path: he cannot fix his choice. At last he sees another traveler; he inquires of him, gets proper directions - proceeds on his journey - arrives at the desired place - and reposes after his fatigue. There is an excellent sermon... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 6:15

Verse 15 Jeremiah turns now his discourse to the whole people. In the last verse he reproved only the priests and the prophets; he now speaks more generally, and says, that they had put off all shame. “Behold,” he says, “they are sufficiently proved guilty, their wickedness is manifest, and yet there is no shame. Their disgrace is visible to heaven and earth; angels and all mortals are witnesses of their corruption; but they have such a meretricious front that they are touched by no sense of... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 6:16

Verse 16 The Prophet teaches us here that the fault of the people could not be extenuated as though they had sinned through ignorance; for they had been warned more than necessary by God. The same sentiment is found in Isaiah, “This is your rest; but they would not hear.” (Isaiah 28:12.) But our Prophet more at large condemns the Jews; for God had commanded them to stand in the ways, to look and to inquire respecting all the old paths. He uses a similitude: and we ought not to doubt... read more

It is an all but complete Judgment, which Jehovah foreshows. Unwilling as the people are to hear it, the disclosure must be made. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 6:9-17

The preacher's bitter cry. Profound distress marks the prophet's utterances in this section. The lament over the incorrigible wickedness of men and his own baffled work is loud and long and bitter exceedingly (cf. Christ's tears over Jerusalem; Paul's sorrow over his countrymen). I. WHAT CAUSED THIS BITTER CRY ? His perception of the judgment of God drawing nigh ( Jeremiah 6:9 , Jeremiah 6:12 , Jeremiah 6:15 ). The obstinacy of the people ( Jeremiah 6:10 , Jeremiah... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 6:15

Were they ashamed ? The Authorized Version certainly meets the requirements of the context; there seems to be an implied interrogation. Most, however, render, "They are brought to shame;" in which ease it seems best to take the verb as a perfect of prophetic certitude, equivalent to "they shall surely be brought to shame." When ; rather, because. Nay, they were not at all ashamed ; rather, nevertheless they feel no shame (i.e. at present). They shall be cast down ; rather, they... read more
