Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Jeremiah 24:1-10

CHAPTER 24 The Two Baskets of Figs 1. The vision of the two baskets of figs (Jeremiah 24:1-3 ) 2. The vision interpreted (Jeremiah 24:4-10 ) Jeremiah 24:1-3 . Jeconiah, with the choicest of the nation, had been carried away into captivity. A large portion remained, and were not taken away, and these attributed their escape from exile to some goodness in them. At that time the prophet had a vision. He saw set before the temple two baskets of figs. The one basket was filled with good figs,... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

MESSAGES IN ZEDEKIAH ’S REIGN These chapters furnish a convenient unit, as they are apparently a group of discourses delivered in Zedekiah’s reign the king of the captivity period. The first, and one of the most interesting, is that concerning the siege (chap. 21). Note the occasion (Jeremiah 21:1-2 ) and observe that Pashur was not he of the last lesson. The siege of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar had begun and the king of Judah hoped the prophet would have some encouraging word from God for... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Figs Good and Bad Jeremiah 24:0 There was an immense advantage in living in Old Testament times. The evidence of that advantage is to be found on every page of the Old Testament itself. Men had a living Lord then. They spoke with him in a very reverent familiarity; although they named his name every day, never does the familiarity go below the point of reverence. You could not speak to an Old Testament man without hearing something about "The Lord"; for he said, with a child's frankness, The... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Jeremiah 24:4-10

Here the Lord himself becomes the Preacher to the Prophet, and explains. The bad figs, represented Zedekiah and his court, still in the land, but against whom, the Lord would in his own appointed time bring the army from Babylon. And the good figs, referred to the Lord's faithful ones, now in captivity. Reader! it is blessed to mark the final issue of all things. Tell ye the righteous it shall be well with him. Say ye to the wicked it shall be ill with him. Isaiah 3:10-11 . But while this is... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Jeremiah 24:10

REFLECTIONS I BEG the Reader to make due reflections on the contents of this short but most interesting Chapter, and he will find cause in making application of what is here said, in reference to the times of the Church then in being, to see how much the people of God are concerned at all times to consider the same doctrine. Both upon a civil, and upon a religious account; times of national distress, are times of great concern. If the good figs as well as the bad figs were to be carried away,... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Two Baskets of Figs Jeremiah 24:1-10 These two baskets represent the different, fates that overlook the people at the fall of Jerusalem. The good figs in the first were those who were taken to Babylon with Jeremiah. It was for their good that they were transplanted, Jeremiah 24:5 . How often we are led into captivity for the same reason. With bitter regrets we turn our backs on our early home, the scenes of our youth, and the faces we have loved. Sometimes we are carried into a strange... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Still speaking to Zedekiah, Jeremiah repeated three prophecies from the past, the first being a vision after Jeconiah's (Jehoiachin's) captivity, the second being a message delivered in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, and the last a yet earlier one, delivered in the beginning of Jehoiakim's reign. The vision after Jeconiah's captivity was two baskets of figs, the first containing very good, and the second very bad, figs. The basket of good figs symbolized the captives who had been taken to the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Subsection 7). Words Concerning Various Kings (Jeremiah 21:1 to Jeremiah 24:10 ). This subsection proceeds in logical sequence although not chronologically, and will centre on three special themes, firstly on the fact that all hope for Judah in the short term has now gone, secondly that the promises of the false prophets suggesting that any of the current sons of David will be restored to the throne are invalid, and thirdly that while final blessing ‘in coming days’ will truly be at the... read more
