The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 7:19

The recoil of sin. I. THE RESULTS OF SIN ON OTHERS ARE TERRIBLE . 1. What may not be their deadly influence upon those with whom the sinner comes in contact? How hereditary, how contagious, how virulent, the poison of sin! As no man liveth unto himself, so also "no man dieth unto himself." If he die by reason of his sin, he ever drags down others into the same doom. 2. And their results Godward . It is said they "provoke him to anger;" "God is angry with the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 7:20

Upon man, and upon beast. That all creation shares in the curse of man is repeatedly affirmed in the Old Testament as well as the New. Inferentially, this doctrine appears from the narrative of the Fall, and still more clearly from Isaiah's description of Paradise regained ( Isaiah 11:1-16 ). Hosea speaks of sufferings of the animals arising out of the guilt of Israel ( Hosea 4:3 ), and a consciousness of the "solidarity" of all living creatures is ascribed to a Ninevite king in the Book... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 7:20

The innocent victims of sin. I. THERE ARE MANY SUCH . All forms of life are mentioned here—human, animal, plant from the stateliest trees down to the lowliest herb—and all shall suffer because of the sin of but a portion of them. How many, even of men, were innocent! And the young children—what had they done? Yet none were to escape, though it was but a portion of the men of the day who had done such wrong. II. HENCE SOME SAY , " THE WAY OF THE LORD Is NOT ... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 7:17-19

Jeremiah 7:17-19. Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah Thou canst not pass along the streets, but thou must needs be an eye witness of their abominations, committed openly and publicly in the face of the sun, without either shame or fear; and in the streets of Jerusalem In both city and country. This intimates both that their sins were evident and could not be denied, and that the sinners were impudent and would not be reclaimed: they committed their wickedness even in the... read more

Jeremiah 7:20. Therefore thus saith the Lord And what he saith he will not unsay, nor can all the world withstand its execution. Hear it therefore and tremble. Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place As the flood of waters was poured upon the old world, or the shower of fire and brimstone upon Sodom; since they will provoke me, let them feel the effects of their conduct. They shall soon find, 1st, That there is no escaping this deluge of wrath, either by fleeing... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 7:16-34

No hope for an idolatrous people (7:16-8:3)God now tells Jeremiah that it is useless for him to persist in praying for the safety of the Judeans. They have so given themselves to idolatrous practices that nothing can save them from God’s judgment. Throughout the cities and towns of Judah people worship foreign gods, but in the process they harm themselves (16-19). The harm will be much greater when God’s judgment falls on them (20).While openly worshipping heathen gods, the people also offer... read more
