耶利米书 44:12 RCUVSS

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 44:11-12

Yahweh, Israel’s God, announced that He would oppose His people with unyielding judgment and cut off the entire Jewish community that had fled to Egypt. All these Jews would die by war or by famine, and would become illustrations for the other nations of what it means to be cursed. There would be no difference between the fate of the powerful and the poor among those whom God judged. read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 44:1-30

LAST MESSAGE TO THE REMNANT Chapter 40 opens with an account of Nebuchadnezzar’s kindness to Jeremiah, inspired by what he had known of the latter’s advice to his countrymen (Jeremiah 40:1-4 ). Jeremiah had been the friend of Babylon, but not necessarily the enemy of his own nation. His patriotism was unquestioned, but the highest expression of his patriotism was his counsel to Judah to obey the will of God and submit to Babylon. Jeremiah’s choice of action is in Jeremiah 40:5-6 . The new... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Jeremiah 44:1-14

Never surely could anything be more gracious than the Lord's repeated expostulations with the people. The Lord follows them into Egypt, whither they had fled in direct defiance of God's word; and yet even here, the same patience and long suffering is set forth. Reader! do not overlook, in Israel's history, our own. Every part and portion of God's word, and every providence, preacheth now as much as then, to the same amount; I am God, and not man, therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 44:1-14

1-14 God reminds the Jews of the sins that brought desolations upon Judah. It becomes us to warn men of the danger of sin with all seriousness: Oh, do not do it! If you love God, do not, for it is provoking to him; if you love your own souls, do not, for it is destructive to them. Let conscience do this for us in the hour of temptation. The Jews whom God sent into the land of the Chaldeans, were there, by the power of God's grace, weaned from idolatry; but those who went by their own perverse... read more
