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's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 20:1-18

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

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 20:7-13

Jeremiah Is So Distraught That He Berates YHWH And Points Out How Tough He Is Finding Things, And Yet He Admits That He Has To Speak Out Whether He Likes It Or Not Because YHWH’s Word Is Like A Burning Fire Within Him, And He Finishes On A Note Of Praise Because He Is Aware That YHWH Is His Support (Jeremiah 20:7-13 ). While up to this point Jeremiah had been sneered at and jeered at he had never had to suffer physical violence, having been seen as sacrosanct as a prophet of YHWH. This... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 20:7-18

Jeremiah 20:7-Job : . The Prophet’ s Troubles, Hopes, and Dark Despair.— In passionate protest against his lot (possibly occasioned by the incident just related) Jeremiah complains that Yahweh has beguiled him into the work of a prophet, only that he may incur bitter shame, and suffer violence. Yet the inner compulsion of the prophetic word will not allow him to restrain it ( i.e. “ forbear” , Jeremiah 20:9), though it subjects him to the charge of treasonable utterance ( Jeremiah 26:11).... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 20:10

The prophet here rendereth a reason why he thought of giving over his work as a prophet, his ears were continually filled with the obloquies and reproaches of such as reproached him, and besides he was afraid on all hands, there were so many traps laid for him, so many devices devised against him. They did not only take all advantages against him, but they sought advantages and invited others to raise up false stories of him. They said to men like themselves, Raise but you the report, we will... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 20:11

The prophet recovering himself out of his fit of passion, encourageth himself in his God, whom he calls the mighty and terrible one, so declaring his faith in the power of God, as one able to save him, and in the promise and good-will of God toward him; therefore he saith, The Lord is with me; such was the promise of God to this prophet, when he first undertook the prophetical office, Jeremiah 1:8, Be not afraid of their faces; for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. From hence he... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 20:12

Seest the reins and the heart: the prophet had, Jeremiah 17:10, spoken unto God under this notion; here he appealeth to him as such, who therefore must needs see as well the prophet’s sincerity as his enemies’ malice. Let me see thy vengeance on them: for his prayer against his enemies, it is of the same nature with what we met with Jeremiah 11:20, indeed this whole verse is the same with that. David, Psalms 58:10, prophesieth that the righteous should rejoice when they see the vengeance which... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 20:13

The prophet here riseth higher, from prayer to praise: it is not certain whether this was a rejoicing of faith or of sense; a thanksgiving to God upon his deliverance out of the hand of Pashur, or some other enemies, or a rejoicing in the sure belief that God would deliver his life out of the hands of these wicked men. If we take it in the latter sense, it teacheth us our duty, to give God the honour of all our deliverances from the hands of wicked men. If in the former sense, it showeth us the... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Jeremiah 20:1-18

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTES.—1. Chronology of the Chapter. With chap. 20 the first section of this book closes. Probably this was Jeremiah’s last public prophecy in Jehoiakim’s reign, and formed the concluding entry in the “roll” which was read in part before Jehoiakim, and which Jehoiakim “cut with his penknife and cast into the fire” (chap. Jeremiah 36:23). To that “roll,” which seems to have concluded with this emphatic prophecy as to the Babylonian Captivity (cf. Jeremiah 20:4 with... read more
