Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Jeremiah 26:1

JEREMIAH 26JEREMIAH WAS TRIED ON CAPITAL CHARGESThis chapter is dated "early in the reign of Jehoiachim," which is supposed to be a technical term indicating the time between his accession to the throne and the New Year following that event. Some dispute this; and there are several opinions held by various scholars regarding the date, which seems certainly to have been at some point in the reign of Jehoiachim. "Most of the present-day expositors date the chapter in 609-608 B.C."[1]Another... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 26:1

Jeremiah 26:1. In the beginning of the reign of Jehoakim— This prophesy is prior in time to that in the preceding chapter. That was delivered in the fourth year of king Jehoiakim; and this at the beginning, or some time in the first year of his reign. See Calmet. read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jeremiah 26:1

Another message from Yahweh came to Jeremiah at the beginning of King Jehoiakim’s reign. Jehoiakim began reigning over Judah in 609 B.C. The terminology used to describe the date is technical, referring to the time between the king’s accession to the throne and the first full year of his reign. [Note: Thompson, p. 524.] This is the earliest date mentioned in the book, with the exception of Jeremiah’s call (Jeremiah 1:2)."Little more than three months had seen King Josiah killed in battle, his... read more

Jeremiah’s Fifteenth Prophecy (Early in the Reign of Jehoiakim)For Jeremiah 26:1-8 see intro. to Jeremiah 7-10. This chapter gives us a sketch of the difficulties and dangers under which Jeremiah had spoken the preceding prophecies.1-6. The prophet warns the people.6. Like Shiloh] see on Jeremiah 7:12. A curse] i.e. a subject of their cursing, as being contemptible.8. A prophet speaking without God’s command was to be put to death (Deuteronomy 18:20).

Charles John Ellicott

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Jeremiah 26:1

XXVI.(1) In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim.—The section which follows is among the earlier fragments of the book, some three years before that of the preceding chapter. It will be noted that there is no mention of the Chaldaeans, and that Jehoiakim is on friendly terms with Egypt (Jeremiah 26:22). This points to the very earliest period of his reign. The chapter that follows, though referred to the same period in the present Hebrew text, really belongs to the reign of Zedekiah. (See... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 26:1-24

CHAPTER IIA TRIAL FOR HERESYJeremiah 26:1-24; cf. Jeremiah 7:1-34; Jeremiah 8:1-22; Jeremiah 9:1-26; Jeremiah 10:1-25"When Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that Jehovah had commanded him to speak unto all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people laid hold on him, saying, Thou shalt surely die."- Jeremiah 26:8THE date of this incident is given, somewhat vaguely, as the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim. It was, therefore, earlier than B.C. 605, the point reached in... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 26:1-24

MESSAGES IN JEHOIAKIM ’S REIGN Having just considered discourses in Zedekiah’s reign, and now returning to that of Jehoiakim (Jeremiah 25:1 ), it can be seen that the chapters are not arranged chronologically. The first message is that of the seventy years captivity. We are familiar with that period as Judah’s forced stay in Babylon, and it is interesting to see the place where it was definitely predicted (Jeremiah 25:11-12 ). Note what leads up to the prediction, God’s patience and... read more
