The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:19

Nothing hid from God. "Thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men." No truth more forgotten than this. Men assent to it, but it has no power over the vast mass of men, and far too little power even over religious men. How different it is with the presence or absence of our fellow creatures! We have often much to conceal from them, and we would often make great efforts to prevent them knowing much of our lives. Hence it makes all the difference in the world to us whether they... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:16-44

God reassures Jeremiah (32:16-44)After buying the field, Jeremiah began to have doubts.

Jeremiah 32:18. And recompensest the iniquity of the fathers— This passage is easily reconciled with the 29th and following verses of the former chapter, by remembering that the prophet is here speaking of the old, and there of the new covenant. See the notes on that passage. read more
