Jeremiah 33:1 NIV

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 33:1

Jeremiah 33:1. The word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah the second time See note on Jeremiah 32:2. Jeremiah being forced out of the temple, God follows him to the prison, and there reveals his mind to him once and again. The wickedness of the Jews in persecuting the prophet could not make God’s promises of no effect respecting mercy to be shown to the people after the captivity; which promises, though made before, are here confirmed a second time. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 33:1-26

The nation restored (33:1-26)After this reassurance, God encourages Jeremiah to ask for further revelations of his plans for his people (3:1-3). Because of his imprisonment, Jeremiah may not know what is happening in and around the city. God shows him that the people of Jerusalem are desperate. They are demolishing houses and palaces in order to obtain materials to strengthen the city walls against the enemy’s battering rams. But they are wasting their time, as the city is going to be destroyed... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Jeremiah 33:1

JEREMIAH 33THE RIGHTEOUS BRANCH; THE MESSIAHMuch of this chapter is challenged by the critics who point out that Jeremiah 33:14-26 are missing from the LXX, and that the apparent prophecies of the endless succession of a Davidic line of kings and a restoration and perpetual continuity of the Levitical priesthood with its countless sacrifices are totally contrary to other prophecies given through Jeremiah.Jeremiah did indeed prophesy the final end of the Davidic line of kings in Jeremiah 22:30,... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Jeremiah 33:1-3

XXXIII.(1-3) The second time, while he was yet shut up.—The discourse that follows belongs to the same period as the preceding chapter, and presents the same general characteristics. Its connexion with the operations of the siege to which Jerusalem was exposed will be traced in Jeremiah 33:4. As with other prophecies, its starting-point is found in the thought of the majesty of the attributes of God.Great and mighty things.—The two adjectives occur in the same combination in Deuteronomy 1:28;... read more

CHAPTER XXXIVRESTORATION VREVIEWJeremiah 30:1-24; Jeremiah 31:1-40; Jeremiah 32:1-44; Jeremiah 33:1-26IN reviewing these chapters we must be careful not to suppose that Jeremiah knew all that would ultimately result from his teaching. When he declared that the conditions of the New Covenant would be written, not in a few parchments, but on every heart, he laid down a principle which involved the most characteristic teaching of the New Testament and the Reformers, and which might seem to justify... read more
