Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Jeremiah 20:3-6

Observe, what holy and becoming boldness in the man of God. Observe what an awful judgment Pashur is doomed to suffer. Magor-missabib, means, being encompassed with fear round about, as a girdle. It is worthy remark, that Jeremiah did not prophesy this of Pashur, when under the punishment, but after he was delivered from it. Probably, the Prophet did not receive from the Lord until then, authority so to do. It is always blessed to wait the Lord's time, for executing the Lord's purposes. read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 20:1-6

1-6 Pashur smote Jeremiah, and put him in the stocks. Jeremiah was silent till God put a word into his mouth. To confirm this, Pashur has a name given him, "Fear on every side." It speaks a man not only in distress, but in despair; not only in danger, but in fear on every side. The wicked are in great fear where no fear is, for God can make the most daring sinner a terror to himself. And those who will not hear of their faults from God's prophets, shall be made to hear them from their... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Jeremiah 20:1-6

v. 1. Now, Pashur, the son of Immer, the priest, who was also chief governor in the house of the Lord, the highest commander of the Temple-watch, who was superior even to the captains of the individual orders in charge of the Temple in the course of their service, heard that Jeremiah prophesied these things. v. 2. Then Pashur, by virtue of the police- and judicial power vested in him, which he believed he must exercise in this instance, smote Jeremiah, the prophet, whose office is here... read more

THE OPPOSITION AND PUNISHMENT OF PASHURJeremiah 19:14 to Jeremiah 20:614Then came Jeremiah [back] from Tophet, whither the Lord [Jehovah] had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the Lord’s [Jehovah’s] house; and 15said to all the people, Thus saith the Lord of hosts [Jehovah Zebaoth], the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 20:1-18

The story of the persecution which this action stirred up against him follows. Pashur heard the prophecy, and, smiting the prophet, arrested and imprisoned him. On the following day Jeremiah, being brought out of the stocks, repeated his prophecy of judgment, singling out Pashur for special attention, declaring that on him would fall most severe punishment. In the midst of this persecution and suffering, the prophet poured out his soul in the presence of Jehovah. Conscious that he had been... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 20:1-6

Jeremiah’s Actions Produce A Violent Response From The Religious Authorities, Resulting In Jeremiah Prophesying What Would Happen To His Adversaries Because Of Their Behaviour (Jeremiah 20:1-6 ). The response to Jeremiah’s words was instantaneous and violent. He was arrested by the Temple authorities, physically abused and put in ‘the stocks’, an instrument probably designed to cause extreme discomfiture. Then on the next day he was brought out of the stocks and stood before the authorities,... read more

Subsection 6). Lessons From The Potter and The Subsequent Persecution Of Jeremiah (Jeremiah 18:1 to Jeremiah 20:18 ). This subsection commences with the usual kind of formula, ‘The word that came to Jeremiah from YHWH --’ (Jeremiah 18:1). Chapters 18-19 then contain two oracles from God illustrated in terms of the Potter and his handiwork, which bring out on the one hand God’s willingness to offer mercy, and on the other the judgment that is about to come on Judah because of their... read more

Arthur Peake

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 20:1-6

Jeremiah 19:1 to Jeremiah 20:6 . The Earthenware Flask; Jeremiah in the Stocks.— This section seems to be editorially grouped with the last because of the further reference to pottery; the original prophecy may have been expanded in Jeremiah 19:3-1 Samuel : by a later writer. It seems more natural to date these incidents after the Temple-sermon ( Jeremiah 19:7) rather than before it; in either case, in the early years of Jehoiakim. Jeremiah is to take representatives of Judah to the Valley... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 20:4

God now expoundeth the name of Magor-missabib, threatening to fill this wicked priest with terrors, that he and all his friends should be affrighted, reflecting upon his most miserable state and condition; and his friends, from whom he might possibly expect some relief, should be as miserable as he; and it should be an addition to his misery, that his eyes should see it, and see his whole country ruined, some being slain by the sword of the king of Babylon, others by him carried into captivity. read more
