耶利米书 25:27 CUVS

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Jeremiah 25:15-31

This scripture can need no other comment, than what is contained in Revelation 14:10 . By Jeremiah's taking the cup, and making all these nations drink of it, is meant, making them to hear and know that the wrath of God is coming upon them. The Lord had indeed been chastizing his children: but when that was accomplished, the rod should be burnt or destroyed. read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 25:15-29

15-29 The evil and the good events of life are often represented in Scripture as cups. Under this figure is represented the desolation then coming upon that part of the world, of which Nebuchadnezzar, who had just began to reign and act, was to be the instrument; but this destroying sword would come from the hand of God. The desolations the sword should make in all these kingdoms, are represented by the consequences of excessive drinking. This may make us loathe the sin of drunkenness, that the... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Jeremiah 25:12-29

The Judgment on the Kingdoms v. 12. And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, namely, from the time of the first deportation to Babylon, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquity, visiting their guilt upon them and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations, the enemies thus being punished in turn, even as it happened when the Medes and Persians under the command of Cyrus overthrew the Babylonian... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Jeremiah 25:1-38

9. NINTH DISCOURSE(Chap. 25)With Three Historical Appendices ( chaps. 26–29)The superscription, Jeremiah 25:1, to which a similar one follows first in Jeremiah 30:1, shows that the compiler of the book regarded chh. 25–29 as a connected group. The motive of this arrangement may be recognized. First, the connection of Jeremiah 27:0 with Jeremiah 25:0. is perfectly clear, the figurative discourse of the cup of wrath, which Jeremiah is to offer the heathen nations (Jeremiah 25:15 sqq.), having a... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 25:1-38

Still speaking to Zedekiah, Jeremiah reminded him of the word which came in the fourth year of Jehoiakim. It was a message announcing the judgment of God against Judah, Babylon, the nations, the world. With regard to Judah, the reason for the judgment was her persistent sin. Notwithstanding that Jehovah had spoken constantly and called them to return to obedience, they had not hearkened. The judgment foretold was the conquest of Judah by Babylon, and her captivity for seventy years. ... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 25:1-38

SECTION 1. An Overall Description Of Jeremiah’s Teaching Given In A Series Of Accumulated, Mainly Undated, Prophecies, Concluding With Jeremiah’s Own Summary Of His Ministry (Jeremiah 2:4 to Jeremiah 25:38 ). From this point onwards up to chapter 25 we have a new major section (a section in which MT and LXX are mainly similar) which records the overall teaching of Jeremiah, probably given mainly during the reigns of Josiah (Jeremiah 3:6) and Jehoiakim, although leading up to the days of... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 25:15-29

All The Nations Will Be Made To Drink From The Cup Of YHWH’s Wrath Against Sin And Idolatry (Jeremiah 25:15-29 ). In these remarkable words the destinies of all nations are seen as in YHWH’s hands. And their destiny is to be drunk and to reel about as a result of YHWH’s wrath (antipathy against sin). None will escape. It is also an interesting summary of the nations of the area as seen by Jeremiah. The command to take the cup and make the nations drink it, and its fulfilment, is, of course,... read more

Jeremiah 25. The Supremacy of Babylon over Judah and the Nations. Jeremiah 25:1-1 Kings : . In the year 604 (after the Babylonian victory over Egypt at Carchemish, 605 B.C., cf. Jeremiah 46:2), Jeremiah publicly reviews his ministry (since 626; cf. Jeremiah 1:2) . which has failed to produce repentance ( Jeremiah 25:1-Judges :). As a result, Yahweh will bring the victorious Babylonians against both Judah and the surrounding peoples to lay them waste, and the supremacy of Babylon shall last... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Jeremiah 25:1-38

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTES.—1. Chronology of the Chapter: “Fourth year of Jehoiakim” (Jeremiah 25:1). It is stated the third year in Daniel 1:1; but Hales (“Sacred Chron.”) shows that Jehoiakim was made king by Pharaoh Necho of Egypt in July B.C. 607; whereas Nebuchadnezzar mounted the throne January 21, B.C. 604: and thus Nebuchadnezzar’s first year included parts of both the third and fourth of Jehoiakim. In the Chaldean cylinders [placing all chronology back by twenty-two years] these... read more
