Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 30:10-11

Jeremiah 30:10-11. Fear thou not, O my servant Jacob As if God had utterly forsaken thee or cast thee off. See the margin. For, lo, I will save thee from afar I will restore you from your captivity, though you should be dispersed into the most distant countries. And though this be not accomplished in the Jews of the present age, it shall be made good to their posterity, who are beloved for their fathers’ sake, as St. Paul speaks, Romans 11:28. And Jacob shall be in rest and quiet, ... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 30:1-24

Disease, suffering and healing (30:1-24)Although he has been prophesying the captivity of Judah, Jeremiah knows also that after seventy years the people will return to their homeland. A theme of hope and encouragement runs through the next few chapters (30:1-3).The suffering of God’s people will almost be more than they can bear, but God assures them that it will not last indefinitely (4-7). He will release them from bondage and give them independence and peace under the rule of the Davidic... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Jeremiah 30:8

"And it shall come to pass in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more make him thy bondman; but they shall serve Jehovah their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them. Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith Jehovah; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet... read more

Thomas Coke

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 30:8

Jeremiah 30:8. And strangers, &c.— And they shall no more serve him among strangers. This prophesy has not yet received its full accomplishment; for, after the return of the Jews from the Babylonish captivity, they were again reduced to servitude by the Greeks and Romans; and at present there is no place in the world where they can be said to enjoy perfect liberty. See Lowth and Calmet. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 30:9

Jeremiah 30:9. They shall serve the Lord—and David— In this place, in Eze 34:23-24 and in Hosea 3:5. David signifies the Messiah. The Targum uses the word Messiah in this very passage, instead of David; and the Talmud, Sanhed. 11: sect. 36 proves from Ezekiel that David is the name of the Messiah; which Kimchi likewise, asserts. The prophets above cited lived long after David; and yet they prophesy of a future king, who is indeed the Messiah in the judgment of all the Jews of note, but called... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 30:8

8. his yoke . . . thy neck—his, that is, Jacob's (Jeremiah 30:7), the yoke imposed on him. The transition to the second person is frequent, God speaking of Jacob or Israel, at the same time addressing him directly. So "him" rightly follows; "foreigners shall no more make him their servant" (Jeremiah 30:7- :). After the deliverance by Cyrus, Persia, Alexander, Antiochus, and Rome made Judah their servant. The full of deliverance meant must, therefore, be still future. read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 30:9

9. Instead of serving strangers (Jeremiah 30:8), they shall serve the Lord, their rightful King in the theocracy (Jeremiah 30:8- :). David, their king—No king of David's seed has held the scepter since the captivity; for Zerubbabel, though of David's line, never claimed the title of "king." The Son of David, Messiah, must therefore be meant; so the Targum (compare Isaiah 55:3; Isaiah 55:4; Ezekiel 34:23; Ezekiel 34:24; Ezekiel 37:24; Hosea 3:5; Romans 11:25-32). He was appointed to the throne... read more
