John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:14

Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel ,.... The order to do the following is ushered in in this solemn manner, partly that Baruch might more strictly observe it, and act according to it; and partly that the persons before whom it was given might take the greater notice of it, and believe that there was something intended by it of moment and importance: take these evidences ; or "books" F24 את הספרים "libellos hos", Cocceius, Schmidt; "literas has", Junius & Tremellius,... read more

For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel ,.... Who is the Lord God Almighty, and can do what he pleases; and is the covenant God of his people, and therefore will do them good by all his providences in the issue of things: houses, and fields, and vineyards, shall be possessed in this land ; or "bought" F25 יקנו "ementur", Cocceius, Piscator; "vedentur", Schmidt. in it; of which the prophet's buying this field was a pledge and earnest; signifying, that though the city... read more

Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah ,.... When he had finished his worldly business, and which yet was by a divine order, and to answer a divine purpose, then he betook himself to prayer; and it is proper we should be quite free from worldly cares and concerns when we enter upon religious duties, particularly prayer to God; when the soul ought to be separated from the world and the things of it, and wholly devoted to God: I prayed unto the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:17

Ah Lord God !.... Which the Vulgate Latin version repeats three times, "Ah, ah, ah", as being greatly distressed with the trouble that was coming upon his people; and, it may be, not without some doubts and temptations about their deliverance; or, at least, was pressed in his mind with the difficulties and objections started by the Jews that were with him in the court: behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm ; with great propriety is the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:18

Thou showest lovingkindness unto thousands ,.... Not to thousands of persons only, but to a thousand generations, even such that love, fear, and serve him; see Exodus 20:6 ; this is very properly added, for the further strengthening of faith; for though the omnipotence of God assures us that there is nothing but what he can do, yet it gives us no certain encouragement he will do this, or that, or the other, in a favourable and gracious manner; but this his loving kindness, experienced by a... read more

Great in counsel, and mighty in word ,.... Counsel belongs to him, and he does all things after the counsel of his will, all things in nature, providence, and grace; and such a display of his wisdom is there in all, that show him to be excellent in counsel; to excel all others; not only to be great, but to be the greatest in counsel; and who regularly and perfectly performs all that he has wisely contrived; his wisdom and his power are equal to each other; he forms the scheme of all that he... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:20

Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day ,.... The prophet here descends to particular instances of the power, wisdom, and goodness of God; and begins with the miracles wrought in Egypt, the plagues inflicted on the Egyptians for refusing to let Israel go; these were set among them, they were true and real things, and obvious to everyone's view; there was no deception in them, they were plain to the senses of men; and the remembrance of them continued among... read more

And hast brought forth thy people Israel of the land of Egypt ,.... As he promised Abraham, some hundreds of years before, that they should come out from thence; and where they had been as bondsmen, though they were the Lord's peculiar people, whom he had chose for himself above all people, and therefore he brought them out of their state of bondage; and this was his own doing, they could not deliver themselves; the enemy would not let them go till he was obliged to it by the superior power... read more
