耶利米书 29:28 CUVS

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 29:28

Time, before you will return. (Haydock) --- Sophonias read the letter, approving of its contents, (St. Jerome) though this is not certain. He took no violent steps against Jeremias, as Phassur had done. (Haydock) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:20-32

20-32 Jeremiah foretells judgments upon the false prophets, who deceived the Jews in Babylon. Lying was bad; lying to the people of the Lord, to delude them into a false hope, was worse; but pretending to rest their own lies upon the God of truth, was worst of all. They flattered others in their sins, because they could not reprove them without condemning themselves. The most secret sins are known to God; and there is a day coming when he will bring to light all the hidden works of darkness.... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Jeremiah 29:24-32

The Doom of Shemaiah Foretold Jeremiah's letter to the men in exile had evidently caused a great stir among the false prophets in Babylon, who had predicted a speedy termination of the exile. Accordingly, one of their number promptly sent letters to Jerusalem, in the endeavor to stir up the inhabitants of the capital against Jeremiah. But the Lord, in turn, gave His servant the command to proclaim His punishment upon the man who interfered with His commands. v. 24. Thus shalt thou also speak... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 29:1-32

As a result of this false prophesying, Jeremiah sent a letter to the exiles. It is evident that they also were disturbed. The letter instructed them, first, concerning their present position, advising them to settle in Babylon and beware of false prophets. It then proceeded to declare what the future would be. Deliverance was in the purpose of God for them, but it would not be accomplished until after seventy years. The promise of deliverance then is full of tenderness and of beauty. It ended... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:1-32

SECTION 2 (Jeremiah 26:1 to Jeremiah 45:5 ). Whilst the first twenty five chapters of Jeremiah have mainly been a record of his general prophecies, mostly given during the reigns of Josiah and Jehoiakim, and have been in the first person, this second section of Jeremiah (Jeremiah 26:1 to Jeremiah 45:5) is in the third person, includes a great deal of material about the problems that Jeremiah faced during his ministry and provides information about the opposition that he continually... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:24-32

Postscript Concerning The Request From Shemaiah The Prophet In Babylon Calling For Jeremiah To Be Severely Disciplined As A False Prophet Because Of His Declarations That Deliverance Would Be Delayed, And What Resulted From It (Jeremiah 29:24-32 ). This may be a postscript to the letter described above (in which case Jeremiah must have written previously), or more likely an indication of a later letter sent to Babylon once Shemaiah had written in response to this letter. It is interesting for... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:1-32

Jeremiah 29. The Future of the Exiles in Babylon ( c. 595).— Jeremiah sends a letter by royal messengers to tell the exiles in Babylon to settle down there for a lengthy stay, and not to be deceived by those who say otherwise ( Jeremiah 29:1-1 Samuel :). After seventy years (see on Jeremiah 25:11), they shall be restored in accordance with Yahweh’ s declared purpose ( Jeremiah 24:4-Judges :) and goodwill ( Jeremiah 29:1-1 Chronicles :). At this point, an insertion seems to have been made in... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 29:28

The matter of fact was true, as appeared Jeremiah 29:5,Jeremiah 29:6, but it was false that this was the effect of phrensy, or that he spake this of his own head without commission from God; for he wrote nothing of this nature but by order from God, as appeareth from Jeremiah 29:4, where he began his letter with, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel. read more
