BEGINNING OF JEREMIAH'S SECOND LAMENT"Woe is me, my mother, that thou has borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not lent, neither have men lent to me; yet every one of them doth curse me. Jehovah said, Verily, I will strengthen thee for good; verily I will cause the enemy to make supplication unto thee in the time of evil and in the time of affliction."These verses and through the end of the chapter constitute "the second personal lament of Jeremiah,"[10]... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 15:10
Jeremiah 15:10. That thou hast borne me a man of strife— The prophet here complains of the opposition he met with from his countrymen for speaking unwelcome truths, which had occasioned him as much uneasiness, as if he had engaged in the most invidious of all occupations, and the most likely to engender strife, that of lending and borrowing upon usury. read more

I have neither lent, &c.—proverbial for, "I have given no cause for strife against me." read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 15:10
In this lament, Jeremiah first addressed his mother and mourned that she had borne him (cf. Jeremiah 20:14-18; Job 3:3-10). It is normal for a single man like Jeremiah to think of his mother when he gets lonely and discouraged. Since the Lord’s call of him antedated his birth (Jeremiah 1:5), cursing his birth was tantamount to rejecting God’s call on his life. His ministry had produced much strife and contention, both for him and his people (cf. Jeremiah 11:18-20). He sounds like a lawyer who... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 15:10-18
A collection of Jeremiah’s personal trials and sayings 15:10-20:18This section of text is highly autobiographical. It contains, among other things, most of Jeremiah’s so-called "confessions" (Jeremiah 15:10-12; Jeremiah 15:15-21; Jeremiah 17:9-11; Jeremiah 17:14-18; Jeremiah 18:18-23; Jeremiah 20:7-18). This section can be a great help and encouragement to modern servants of the Lord. read more

4. Warnings in view of Judah’s hard heart 15:10-25:38This section of the book contains several collections of Jeremiah’s confessions, symbolic acts, and messages. These passages reflect conditions that were very grim, so their origin may have been shortly before the fall of Jerusalem in 586 B.C. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 15:10-21
Jeremiah’s anguish; God’s comfort (15:10-21)The prophet again complains to God because of the unjust treatment he suffers. He has done no harm to the people, and in fact has pleaded on their behalf for God’s mercy upon them, yet they hate him. They are angered at his attacks on their sin and his forecasts of judgment. Their hearts are as hard as iron (10-12). God’s word is that the Judeans will be invaded, plundered and taken captive (13-14).Knowing that God is understanding, Jeremiah asks that... read more
