The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:1-44
A story of God's sustaining grace. This whole chapter may be summed up under some such heading as this. For it begins with showing us God's servant Jeremiah in a position in which he sorely needed sustaining grace, and then it proceeds to narrate the threefold process by which this grace was communicated to him. The manner in which God sustained Jeremiah is very much akin to that in which he will sustain all his servants who may be in similar need. If any be so now, let them give heed to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:26-44
The Divine answer. This falls into two parts. First, Jehovah repeats the burden of so many prophecies, that Israel has only to blame himself for his punishment ( Jeremiah 32:26-35 ); and then a bright future is disclosed beyond the gloomy interval of conquest and captivity—a future when men shall buy fields, and comply with all the legal formalities, precisely as Jeremiah has done (verses 36-44). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:36-41
The refiner's fire. The better part of Judah were cast as precious metal into a crucible by their being sent into exile at Babylon. And the effect was as that which results from such purifying process. Note— I. WITHOUT DOUBT THEIR EXILE TRIED THEM AS FIRE . Fire is often the symbol of pain; and that there was indeed pain and sore distress in the exiles' lot is certain. Degradation, slavery, loss of their land, their high privileges as the people of God, in short, of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:39
One heart, and one way. Unity is always given as the "note" of the ideal, Messianic period (comp. Zephaniah 3:9 ; Zechariah 14:9 ; John 10:16 ). That they may fear me forever . This reminds us of a phrase in the exhortation in Deuteronomy 4:10 , as the next clause does of Deuteronomy 6:24 . read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:39
Unity. I. UNITY IS PROMISED AS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE GOLDEN AGE OF THE FUTURE . This is unity of thought, "one heart," and unity of conduct, "one way." Men shall then see "eye to eye," discord and controversy cease, peace and amity prevail. There may still be diversity of ideas in the sense of personal difference, because individual characters, positions, and opportunities must still vary. But in a perfect condition there will be no discord. The variations will... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:40
An everlasting covenant. It is the "new covenant" of Jeremiah 31:31 , etc; which is meant (for the phrase, comp. Isaiah 55:3 ; Ezekiel 37:26 ). That I will not turn … to do them good. The comma in the Authorized Version impairs the sense. The prophet means, "That I will not cease to show them favour" (comp. Isaiah 54:10 ). read more

Assuredly ; literally, with faith. fulness; i.e. with perfect sincerity, without an arriere pensee, as the next words explain it; comp. 1 Samuel 12:24 ; Isaiah 38:3 (Graf). read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 32:41
Verse 41 When God says that he would take pleasure in doing good to his people, he adopts the language of man, for fathers rejoice when they can do good to their children. God then, as the paternal love with which he regards his people could not have been otherwise expressed, made use of this similitude. Further, the contrast also ought to be noticed, even that God had rejoiced when he punished his people for their wickedness. For God delights in judgment as well as in mercy. God then for a... read more
