Jeremiah 32:26-35 NASB,NIV

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:30

From their youth (see on Jeremiah 3:24 , Jeremiah 3:25 ; Jeremiah 22:21 ). The children of Israel, in the first half of the verse, must have a narrower sense than in the second half. The fall of Jerusalem is the climax of the series of punishments which the two separated and yet (in God's sight) united portions of the people of Israel have had to undergo. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:31

From the day that they built it. It is useless to tell an impassioned orator that his words are not strictly consistent with primitive history. The Israelites may not have built Jerusalem, but Jeremiah was not to be debarred from the strongest form of expression open to him for such a reason. He means "from the earliest times." Jeremiah 32:34 , Jeremiah 32:35 . Repeated, with slight variations, from Jeremiah 7:30 , Jeremiah 7:31 . "Baal" and "Molech" are identified as in ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:31-33

Love's labour apparently lost. As we read this record ( Jeremiah 32:33 ) of the persevering and earnest, but nevertheless fruitless, labours of God's servants, and remember that they were sent by the Lord, we are almost led to ask, "To what purpose is this waste?" We can understand loving, earnest labour persevered in, though nothing may come of it, when those who so toil are sustained by hope, even though it may be sometimes hoping against hope. But "love hopeth all things, believeth... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 32:33

Man's neglect of God's teaching. I. GOD 'S ATTITUDE AS A TEACHER TOWARDS MAN . God's complaint is that man turns to him the back and not the face. Hence we are . But God, looking from a higher point, sees the enduring bright result beyond. Observe in this passage— I. GOD 'S THOROUGH GOOD WILL TOWARDS HIS PEOPLE . His will is ever to show favour and do good to mankind. That will is always in action, but it can only be in manifestation when men themselves, by... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 32:26-44

The answer is divided into two parts;(a) Jeremiah 32:26-35, the sins of Judah are shown to be the cause of her punishment:(b) Jeremiah 32:36-44, this punishment was not for Judah’s destruction, but for her amendment.Jeremiah 32:28I will give - Or, I am giving.Jeremiah 32:30From their youth - God’s mighty deeds for Israel began in Egypt Jeremiah 32:20, and so did Israel’s sin.Jeremiah 32:34, Jeremiah 32:35These verses are repeated from Jeremiah 7:30-31, but with two important variations. Baal is... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 32:26-35

Jeremiah 32:26-35 . Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah To this difficulty of Jeremiah, between what was commanded him, and the prospect of its being, not only useless, but disadvantageous to him, the Lord answered, Behold, I am the God of all flesh Of all men: is any thing too hard for me? The difficulties which thou thinkest are not to be surmounted are not difficulties to me, who can do all things, and have the lives and actions of men wholly at my disposal. Therefore,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 32:16-44

God reassures Jeremiah (32:16-44)After buying the field, Jeremiah began to have doubts. It seemed to him almost too much to expect that God could allow such a worthless people ever to return to their land. He therefore prayed to God (16), seeking to reassure himself that nothing is too hard for a God who is so loving and powerful (17-19). He reminds God of his steadfast faithfulness and miraculous power, which had saved his people in the past (20-22). But the people have been disobedient and... read more
