耶利米書 13:27 RCUVTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 13:22-27

Here is, I. Ruin threatened as before, that the Jews shall go into captivity, and fall under all the miseries of beggary and bondage, shall be stripped of their clothes, their skirts discovered for want of upper garments to cover them, and their heels made bare for want of shoes, Jer. 13:22. Thus they used to deal with prisoners taken in war, when they drove them into captivity, naked and barefoot, Isa. 20:4. Being thus carried off into a strange country, they shall be scattered there, as the... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 13:27

I have seen thine adulteries ,.... Not literally such, though they were greatly guilty of that sin; but figuratively, their idolatries: thy neighings ; expressive of their strong desires after other gods, like that of adulterers and adulteresses after one another; and both which are like the neighing of horses. Kimchi thinks this designs their rejoicing in their evil works: the lewdness of thy whoredom ; their sinful thoughts, and wicked desires, which were continually after their... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 13:27

I have seen thine adulteries - Thy idolatries of different kinds, practiced in various ways; no doubt often accompanied with gross debauchery. Wo unto thee, O Jerusalem wilt thou not be made clean? - We see from this, that though the thing was difficult, yet it was not impossible, for these Ethiopians to change their skin, for these leopards to change their spots. It was only their obstinate refusal of the grace of God that rendered it impossible. Man cannot change himself; but he may... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 13:27

Verse 27 Here the Prophet explains at large what I have before stated, — that the people were justly punished by God, though very grievously, because they had provoked God, not at one time only, but for a long time, and had obstinately persisted in their evil courses. Moreover, as their sins were various, the Prophet does not mention them all here; for we have seen elsewhere, that they were not only given to superstitions, but also to whoredoms, drunkenness, plunders, and outrages; but here he... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 13:27

I have seen , etc. The Hebrew is again more forcible than the English. It runs, "Thine adulteries and thy neighings," etc. l (this is an exclamation as it were; then more reflectively)," I have seen thine abominations." Neighings ; i.e. passionate craving for illegitimate objects of worship (comp. Jeremiah 2:24 , Jeremiah 2:25 ; Jeremiah 5:8 ). In the fields . The Hebrew has the singular. The "field," as usual, means the open country. Wilt thou not , etc.? rather, How long ere... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 13:27

The one thing needful. "Wilt thou not be made clean? When ," etc.? I. MEN ARE SPIRITUALLY UNCLEAN . Like as the Lord looked down upon the occupants of the porches at Bethesda, and saw but a multitude of impotent folk ( John 5:1-47 .); so now, as "his eyes behold the children of men," he sees a similar though a far more terrible sight—the mass of mankind spiritually diseased. This is manifestly true of the heathen world. The abominations and the cruelties that are... read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 13:27

And thine abominations - “Even thy abominations.” The prophet sums up the three charges against Judah, namely, spiritual adultery, inordinate eagerness after idolatry (see the note at Jeremiah 5:7 note), and shameless participation in pagan orgies.In the fields - “in the field,” the open, unenclosed country (see Jeremiah 6:25; Jeremiah 12:4).Wilt thou not ... once be? - “Or, how long yet ere thou be made clean!” These words explain the teaching of Jeremiah 13:23. Repentance was not an actual,... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 13:26-27

Jeremiah 13:26-27. Therefore will I discover thy skirts Lay thee open to shame and disgrace. See on Jeremiah 13:22. I have seen thine adulteries Thy idolatries; thy inordinate desire after strange gods, which thou hast been impatient to gratify: thy neighings A metaphorical expression taken from horses neighing to each other; the lewdness of thy whoredoms Thy impudence and unsatiableness in the worship of idols, on the hills, in the fields, upon the high places. Wo unto thee, O... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 13:1-27

A nation useless and disgraced (13:1-27)In an effort to emphasize God’s warnings to Judah more forcefully, Jeremiah gave them an illustration that they could all see. He took a piece of clean new cloth, put it around his waist, then walked to a distant river where he buried the cloth in the river bank. Some time later he returned to the river and brought back the cloth for all to see. It was now rotten and useless (13:1-7). The meaning is that Judah, the nation that was supposed to be morally... read more
