Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 32:26-44

YHWH’s Answer Is Unequivocal. It Is True That Nothing Is Too Hard For Him, But That Must Be Seen As Precisely The Reason Why He Was Delivering The City Into The Hands Of The Chaldeans. For He Will Also Later Cause His People To Return From Exile So That Land Will Once Again Be Bought And Sold In Judah (Jeremiah 32:26-44 ). YHWH answers both of the questions that are preying on Jeremiah’s mind. On the one hand He stresses that He does intend to deliver the city into the hands of the Chaldeans... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 32:28-35

Jerusalem Will Be Destroyed Because Of The People’s Gross Sinfulness (Jeremiah 32:28-35 ). Jeremiah 32:28 “Therefore thus says YHWH, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he will take it,” And it is on this basis that He intends to give the city into the hands of the Chaldeans (another name for the Babylonians, or possibly in this case Nebuchadrezzar’s choice troops) and into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar the king... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 32:26-44

Jeremiah 32:26-Acts : . Yahweh answers the prophet by declaring the issue and cause of the present distress, and by promising ( Jeremiah 32:36 ff.) the future restoration of the people to Palestine, where they shall dwell in religious unity and in prosperity. Most or all of this seems later than Jeremiah; e.g. Jeremiah 32:31 agrees with Ezekiel (Ezekiel 16), rather than with Jeremiah 32:43 presupposes the exile; Jeremiah 32:27-Habakkuk : is irrelevant to the context. Jeremiah 32:29 . Cf.... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 32:33

They have behaved themselves against me contemptuously, like men who, when they are spoken to, admonished, or instructed, instead of looking towards those who instruct or admonish them, turn their back upon them. Yet their sin had not been so great and heinous, if I by my prophets had not diligently instructed them, and they as stubbornly refused to be taught or amended by their instruction. read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:1-44

Chapter 32The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar ( Jeremiah 32:1 ).Now in the eleventh year of Zedekiah is when Jerusalem fell. So this is right at the end.For then [even at this time, the tenth year] the king of Babylon's army had besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the king of Judah's house. For Zedekiah king of Judah had imprisoned... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 32:1-44

Jeremiah 32:1 . The eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar. This name, which in Hebrew signifies groaning and complaint, aptly describes the miseries he inflicted on the nations. Like an inundation he ravaged all the conquered states, instead of watering them. He was son of Merodach, and founder of the Babylonian empire. Daniel 2:7. He is called the head of gold, and the flying eagle. In the first year of his military career, which was the twenty ninth of king Josiah, he ruined Nineveh, and put... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Jeremiah 32:33

Jeremiah 32:33They have turned unto Me the back, and not the face Human wickednessI.As condemning Divine authority. To turn the back upon any one, not only indicates an utter lack of interest in him, but a dislike. To turn the back upon God means--1. An ignorement of His existence. The language of wickedness is, “Depart from me, I desire not a knowledge of Thy ways.” The wicked are “without God in the world.” They shut their eyes to the greatest fact of facts. God is not in all their... read more
