Stand in the court of the Lord’s house The great court where both men and women ordinarily worshipped, says Dr. Lightfoot, when they brought no sacrifice; for when they did so, they were to bring it into the inner court, otherwise called the court of Israel, or of the priests, as the same learned author has observed in his treatise concerning the temple service. And speak unto all the cities of Judah Here it is evident that ערו , cities, are put for their inhabitants;... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 26:1-24

26:1-34:22 PROPHECIES OF EXILE AND RETURNThe dangerous life of a prophet (26:1-24)Again Jeremiah went to the temple, where he could preach to people who came from all over Judah to worship. He stood in the open court and urged the worshippers to give up their sinful ways and return to God (26:1-3). If they refused, the temple would be demolished, as the tabernacle had been at Shiloh several centuries earlier (4-6; see notes on 7:1-15; cf. also 19:14-20:6).Religious officials and ordinary... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 26:2

Jeremiah 26:2. Stand in the court, &c.— The great court, where both men and women worshipped when they brought no sacrifice; for when they did so, they were to carry it into the inner-court, called The court of Israel. Jeremiah frequently spoke in the temple, because of the great concourse of people in that place. It is also very probable, that he chose the days of the great festivals. See Lightfoot. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 26:2

The Lord commanded His prophet to stand in the temple courtyard and deliver every word of this message to the people who came there. He was not to omit one word for fear of the consequences of his preaching or to trim his message to please his hearers. The occasion may have been a special festival, since people from many parts of Judah came to the temple at that time. What follows is a summary of the Temple Sermon previously recorded in Jeremiah 7:1-15, but here the reaction that the sermon... read more
