耶利米書 5:23-24 RCUVTS

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Jeremiah 5:1-31

CHAPTER 5 1. The apostate conditions of Jerusalem (Jeremiah 5:1-9 ) 2. The impending judgment (Jeremiah 5:10-18 ) 3. Sowing and reaping (Jeremiah 5:19-29 ) 4. The horrible thing (Jeremiah 5:30-31 ) Jeremiah 5:1-9 . So degenerate had the inhabitants of Jerusalem become that the Lord promised if but one man could be found in the city who executed judgment and sought the truth, He would pardon Jerusalem. It was a general apostasy. A similar apostasy is predicted for the end of our age.... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 5:1-31

PERSECUTED IN HIS HOME TOWN The length of this lesson may alarm, but preparation for it only requires the reading of the chapters two or three times. One who has gone through Isaiah will soon catch the drift of the Spirit’s teaching and be able to break up the chapters into separate discourses and the discourses into their various themes. The main object of the lesson is to dwell on the prophet’s personal experience in his home town which is reached in the closing chapters. It is thought... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Jeremiah 5:1-31

God's Judgment of Self-will Jer 5:21-24 The tone in which God expostulates with Israel, and the figures by which he represents the kind of punishment which he will bring upon them, are really startling. The house of Jacob and all the families of Israel are charged with having forgotten God; priest and lawyer, pastor and prophet, had turned from the true testimony; they had become unto God as the degenerate plant of a strange vine; they had said to a rock, Thou art my father, and to a stone,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Jeremiah 5:20-24

Reader! observe how graciously the Lord goeth on to expostulate, and to reason with his people. Both Israel and Judah shall hear. And by what strong appeals from his omnipotency, he calls them to consideration. But alas! until the Lord that calls, gives the grace, to hear, all preaching is in vain. What the Lord hath here said of the sea, and the waves, and the appointed weeks of harvest, is in reference to his Covenant after the flood: to which we of the present hour, can set our seal, as well... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 5:19-31

19-31 Unhumbled hearts are ready to charge God with being unjust in their afflictions. But they may read their sin in their punishment. If men will inquire wherefore the Lord doeth hard things unto them, let them think of their sins. The restless waves obeyed the Divine decree, that they should not pass the sandy shores, which were as much a restraint as lofty mountains; but they burst all restraints of God's law, and were wholly gone into wickedness. Neither did they consider their interest.... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Jeremiah 5:19-31

Blindness of Heart, Ingratitude, Deceit, and Violence v. 19. And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the Lord, our God, all these things unto us? when they finally reach the point that they make inquiry concerning the punishment striking them, then shall thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken Me and served strange gods in your land, in idolatrous worship, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours. Cf Deuteronomy 28:47-Galatians :. This was the Lord's... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Jeremiah 5:1-31

II. Demonstration of the justice of the judgments by the enumeration of their causes(Jeremiah 5:1-31)The prophet enumerates these by first denouncing the universal corruption, especially in reference to the want of אֱמוּנָה. Jeremiah 5:1-6 he shows that truth and faith have entirely disappeared from public life; Jeremiah 5:7-9 that אֱמוּנָה is wanting in conjugal relations; Jeremiah 5:10-18 that none of this is any longer found in the sense of faith in God; Jeremiah 5:19-24 he describes the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 5:1-31

Having thus declared that judgment was determined on, the prophet now carefully declared the reason for it. This was, first, the utter corruption of conduct. Among the people not a man was to lie found who was truthful and just. Disappointed in his search, he turned to the great men and the rulers, and they also had "broken the yoke and burst the bands." Therefore judgment was indeed inevitable, and pardon impossible. The second reason was that they did not believe the message. They had... read more

James Nisbet

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 5:24

GRATITUDE FOR HARVEST‘The appointed weeks of the harvest.’ Jeremiah 5:24 The inspired writers, in urging the claims of God and of religion upon those to whom they addressed their messages, sometimes made use of facts which were familiar to all, in order to support those claims. Whilst there were special proofs in Revelation of Divine wisdom, care, and love, it was thought well sometimes to appeal to those proofs of Providential oversight and benevolence which are visible to every eye, and... read more
