The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:1-12

The covenant with the fathers binding on the children. Here it is necessary to go back over all the history of Israel, and consider the great covenant transactions between God and his people. Such transactions we find to have been filled with great solemnity, so that they might make a deep mark in history. We trace the beginnings of the great covenant in God's dealings with Abraham. Indeed, the covenant with Israel as a nation was the necessary consequence of the covenant with Abraham as... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:1-23

1. A reminder of the renewal of the covenant between Jehovah and the people lately made under Josiah ( Jeremiah 11:1-8 ). 2. First stage of the conspiracy; all Israel, instead of keeping the covenant with Jehovah, conspires against him ( Jeremiah 11:9-13 ). 3. The punishment of the conspiracy is an irreversible, severe judgment ( Jeremiah 11:14 17). 4. Second stage of the conspiracy; the plot of the men of Anathoth ( Jeremiah 11:18-23 ). 5. Third stage; the plot... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:7-8

A condensation of Jeremiah 7:23-26 . Imagination ; rather, stubbornness (see on Jeremiah 3:17 ). I will bring ; rather, I brought . All the words . "Word" sometimes means "thing spoken of;" here, for instance, the curses specified in Deuteronomy 28:1-68 . read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:9

A conspiracy . The language is figurative. Jehovah is the King of Israel; to commit sin is "to rebel against" him (Authorized Version sometimes weakens this into "transgress'); and to encourage one another in wickedness is "to conspire against" God. We need not suppose any open combination against spiritual religion; it is enough if" the spirit of the time" was directly contrary to it. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:10

Their forefathers . The Hebrew has "their fathers, the former ones." The allusion is to the sins of the Israelites in the wilderness, and in Canaan under the judges. The prophets are constantly pointing their hearers back to those early times, either for warning (as here) or for encouragement ( Jeremiah 2:1 ; Hosea 2:15 ; Isaiah 1:26 ; Isaiah 63:11 , Isaiah 63:13 ). And they went after ; rather and they ( themselves ) have gone after . The pronoun is expressed in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:10

Spiritual atavism; or, the sins of the fathers. There are punishments and consequences of ancestral sin which reach even to descendants of remote generations. This seems to imply a descent of responsibility—a subject full of difficulty and mystery. The unity of the race in its sin and misery is , with St. Paul, an argument for the probability and even certainty of its unity in the grace of salvation. The doctrine of original sin is treated in Scripture as antecedent to the doctrine of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:11-13

A summary of Jeremiah's usual prophecies (comp. Jeremiah 4:6 ; Jeremiah 6:19 ; Jeremiah 19:3 ; and especially Jeremiah 2:28 ; Jeremiah 7:17 ). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:11-13

Idolatry confounded. I. TROUBLE IS A TOUCHSTONE FOR RELIGIOUS TRUTH . The idolatry that is played with in prosperity is found to be useless in adversity. The Jews had regarded mere stocks and stones as their gods. But in the season of real distress they turn from these and cry to the true God to arise and save them. 1. The ground of confidence which gives way in the hour of need is worse than useless ; it is treacherous and ruinous, and the discovery of its true... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 11:13

That shameful thing ; rather, the shame. The name Baal is changed, to mark the abhorrence of the speaker, into Bosheth (see Jeremiah 3:24 ). Manasseh, we are told, "raised up altars for Baal" ( 2 Kings 21:3 ). read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 11:8

I will bring - Rather, I have brought. The breach of the covenant upon their part had always brought temporal calamity. The last examples were the deportation of the ten tribes by Salmanezer, and the leading of Manasseh prisoner to Babylon in chains (2 Chronicles 33:11). read more
