Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 11:8

Jeremiah 11:8. Therefore I will bring— Therefore have I brought. It is of the nature of a covenant to denounce penalties against the presumptuous transgressor of it. And the sanctions of the Mosaic covenant may be seen scattered through different parts of the law, but particularly Leviticus 26:14; Leviticus 26:46. Deuteronomy 11:26-28; Deuteronomy 27:0; Deuteronomy 28:0; Deuteronomy 30:15; Deuteronomy 30:20. Our English translators have rendered ואביא vaabi in the future tense; but it has the... read more

3. Warnings in view of present conditions 11:1-15:9This collection of warnings in view of present conditions can be divided into two parts: seven pericopes dealing with the consequences of breaking the Mosaic Covenant (chs. 11-13); and three laments describing the coming invasion (Jeremiah 14:1 to Jeremiah 15:9).The consequences of breaking the covenant chs. 11-13This section provides an explanation for God’s judgment on His people: the Judahites broke the Mosaic Covenant. It also contains two... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 11:1-17

The broken covenant 11:1-17This passage consists of five short parts (Jeremiah 11:1-17). Most scholars believe it dates from the reign of Josiah, perhaps after the discovery of the Law but before he initiated his reforms (about 621 B.C.; cf. 2 Chronicles 34:8-33). read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 11:8

Nevertheless the Israelites had failed to listen and obey. Consequently, the Lord had brought all the curses warned of in the covenant upon them. The root of the problem was Israel’s stubborn and evil heart."We are prone to hope that God will be like the modern indulgent parent and that there will be no reckoning if we, also, disobey Him. It is a vain hope. Judgment is sure to come. As God punished Israel, so will He punish all whose hearts are confirmed in disobedience toward Him." [Note:... read more

John Dummelow

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 11:1-17

Jeremiah’s Sixth Prophecy (Reign of Josiah). The Broken Covenant entails a CurseThese chapters form a connected prophecy. They probably belong to Josiah’s time, for (a) ’the words of this covenant’ (Jeremiah 11:3) seem to refer to the reading of the newly discovered law mentioned in 2 Kings 23:3; (b) Jeremiah has not yet removed from Anathoth to Jerusalem (Jeremiah 11:21), and (c) the apparent allusion (Jeremiah 12:4) to a drought accords with similar references in prophecies belonging to... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Jeremiah 11:8

(8) Imagination.—Better, as before (Jeremiah 3:17), stubbornness.Therefore I will bring upon them.—Better, I have brought upon them. The words contain not a direct prediction, but an appeal to the experience of the past as in itself foreshadowing the future. read more

William Nicoll

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 11:1-23

CHAPTER VIITHE BROKEN COVENANTJeremiah 11:1-23 and Jeremiah 12:1-17THERE is no visible break between these two chapters. They seem to summarise the history of a particular episode in the prophet’s career. At the same time, the style is so peculiar that it is not so easy as it might appear at a first glance to determine exactly what it is that the section has to tell us. When we come to take a closer look at it, we find a thoroughly characteristic mixture of direct narrative and soliloquy, of... read more
