耶利米书 24:10 CUNPSS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

This short chapter helps us to put a very comfortable construction upon a great many long ones, by showing us that the same providence which to some is a savour of death unto death may by the grace and blessing of God be made to others a savour of life unto life; and that, though God's people share with others in the same calamity, yet it is not the same to them that it is to others, but is designed for their good and shall issue in their good; to them it is a correcting rod in the hand of a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 24:10

And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence , among them ,.... Meaning not in other lands, where they should be driven, but while in their own land, by which many should perish; and the rest that escaped these dreadful judgments should be carried captive. The Targum is, "I will send those that kill with the sword, &c.;' till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers ; so that none of them should be left there to inhabit it,... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 24:10

I will send the sword - Many of them fell by sword and famine in the war with the Chaldeans, and many more by such means afterwards. The first received their captivity as a correction, and turned to God; the latter still hardened their hearts more and more, and probably very many of them never returned: perhaps they are now amalgamated with heathen nations. Lord, how long? read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 24:10

Verse 10 He confirms the former verse, — that God would then with extreme rigor punish them, by allowing the city and the inhabitants who remained, to be given up to the will of their enemies. And Jeremiah still speaks as from the mouth of Moses, that his prophecy might be more weighty, and that he might frighten those men who were so refractory. There are here three kinds of punishments which we often meet with, under which are included all other punishments. But as God for the most part... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Two baskets of figs. I. MORALLY MEN ARE DIVISIBLE INTO TWO DISTINCT CLASSES . The two baskets of figs represent two classes of Jews: the basket of good figs, Jeconiah and his followers; the basket of bad figs, Zedekiah and his party. The great distinction between these was moral. There were princes in both classes; yet the one stood far higher in the sight of God than the other. 1. The deepest line of cleavage which runs down through all sections of mankind is moral ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

The two baskets of figs; or, predetermining influences. These are not to be understood of the opposite development of character in two sets of persons in slightly differing circumstances, but rather of the primary influence of Divine faith as contrasted with the want of it amidst the trials of life. The people left behind were disposed to felicitate themselves over their brethren who had been carried off into Chaldea, but this impression is corrected by Jeremiah. The exiles were the true... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Calamity with God and without him. I. To THE CHILD OF GRACE . 1. It is a chastening . 2. A restoration . II. To THE UNGODLY . 1. The influence depreciating character . 2. A source of restlessness and fresh transgression . 3. An ever-increasing evil . 4. An ultimate destruction .—M. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 24:1-10

Punished for salvation; left alone for destruction. A general principle of God's moral government. The flower of Judah, about to be deported to Babylon, are followed by the prophet with wistful gaze. They are the seed of the true Israel; whereas those who are allowed to remain quietly at home are to be of no account in God's purpose. I. HOW DIFFERENT OFTEN ARE THE EXTERNAL FROM THE SPIRITUAL PROSPECTS OF MEN ! Jeconiah and his companions might have been pitied... read more

The two baskets of figs; or, our character and destiny independent of our circumstances. I. THE SYMBOLS EMPLOYED . The two baskets of figs—one very good, the other very evil. But: 1. They had each the same advantages and disadvantages . The same seed, soil, training, climate, sunshine, and other influences teeming on them. 2. They were of directly opposite character . ( Jeremiah 24:2 .) II. THE PEOPLE REPRESENTED BY THEM . The men of Judah and... read more
