Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 30:5-22

Jeremiah 30:5-Song of Solomon : . Description of the people’ s terror ( Jeremiah 30:5 mg.) at the “ Day of Yahweh” ( Amos 5:18); but this “ Day” shall bring deliverance from the (heathen) yoke ( Jeremiah 30:8), and Israel shall have (religious) freedom under the future “ Davidic” king. The gathered people shall be delivered from fear (like a protected flock, Isaiah 17:2); the heathen nations shall be destroyed, Israel escaping with proper chastisement only ( Jeremiah 10:24). At present, Zion... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 30:16

The particle לָכֵן is thought here to be ill translated therefore, for manifestly it is not a causal or illative, and those who interpret it therefore refer it to what went before, Jeremiah 30:10,Jeremiah 30:11. It were better translated nevertheless, or notwithstanding yet: so the learned author of the English Annotations thinks it should be translated Isaiah 7:14; Isaiah 30:18, and in many other texts. This text is a declaration of God’s free mercy: though this people had justly provoked the... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Jeremiah 30:1-24

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTES.—Chronology of the Chapter.—Though without a date, yet the probability is that it was “written in a book” (see Jeremiah 30:2) in the tenth year of Zedekiah; and that this date [given at the head of chap. 32] applies to the four chapters, 30 to 33 inclusive. But it is open to dispute whether the prophecies contained in chapters 30 and 31 were not delivered at a considerably earlier date. Naegelsbach dates these two chapters as “the oldest part of the whole book” of... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 30:1-24

Chapter 30Now as we get into chapter 30, we enter into the future in these next four chapters. And this is now writing of the Great Tribulation period which is yet future. This is writing about this period of time, the final seven years in which God is going to be dealing with the nation Israel. For seventy sevens were determined upon the nation Israel, of which sixty-nine were fulfilled when Christ the Messiah came, leaving one seven-year cycle yet to be fulfilled which is yet future, which... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 30:1-24

Jeremiah 30:6 . Ask ye now whether a man doth travail with child. The anguish of a people once lords in Judea, now servants in Babylon, was great. But they were happier weeping there than worshipping Ashtaroth in Jerusalem. The captives hope, while those they had left had nothing but grief and fear. Jeremiah 30:8 . It shall come to pass in that day that I will break his yoke from off thy neck. They shall not return to the Messiah in a state of servitude. Judah shall be saved, and Israel... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 30:16

16. Therefore Looking back to Jeremiah 30:13. They that spoil thee shall be a spoil. Retribution in kind is here threatened; and it is such retribution that under God’s economy is always inflicted. In the working of law in every realm there is always a tendency to exact satisfaction in the very matter, and indeed in the very form, of the offence. Only dimly is this seen in providence, so various and complicated are the workings of law here, but as we come into simpler and more easily... read more
