耶利米書 6:7 CUNPTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 6:1-8

Here is I. Judgment threatened against Judah and Jerusalem. The city and the country were at this time secure and under no apprehension of danger; they saw no cloud gathering, but every thing looked safe and serene: but the prophet tells them that they shall shortly be invaded by a foreign power, an army shall be brought against them from the north, which shall lay all waste, and shall cause not only a general consternation, but a general desolation. It is here foretold, 1. That the alarm of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 6:7

As a fountain casteth out her waters ,.... In great abundance, and continually: so she casteth out her wickedness ; this metaphor expresses the multitude of her sins, the frequent and constant commission of them, and the source and spring of them, the corrupt fountain of the heart; see Matthew 12:34 , violence and spoil is heard in her ; that is, the cry of those that are oppressed and spoiled is heard, and that by the Lord himself, whose ears are open to the cries of the... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 6:7

Verse 7 The Prophet enlarges on what he had said in the last verse; for he had shewn, by mentioning one kind of evil, that Jerusalem was a den of thieves, as oppression dwelt in the midst of it. But he now, by a comparison, amplifies his former statement, and says, that violence, oppression, devastation, grief, and smiting, streamed forth like waters from a fountain. It is possible for many vices to break out from a place, but repentance afterwards follows; but when men cease not, and heap... read more

A dreadful onlook. Such was the vision of Jeremiah which he saw concerning the coming wrath upon Judah and Jerusalem. It was the sad sight which the sinners in Jerusalem never, but the seer ever, saw clearly, vividly, heart-brokenly. The vision of Jeremiah for Jerusalem was the forerunner of our Lord's in substance, spirit, and result. Now, with regard to this awful onlook of the prophet which is here related, note— I. HOW SOLITARY IT WAS . The people of Judah and Jerusalem... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 6:4-8

The apostate city that cannot be let alone. Godlessness is condemned by its impracticableness as a universal and thorough-going principle of human life. It is also an evil that defies ordinary restraints, and constantly becomes worse. "This is the strongest and most dangerous mining-powder of cities and fortresses when sin, shame, vice, and wantonness get the upper hand" (Cramer). The city that has forsaken God is— I. A SOURCE OF MISCHIEF AND UNCLEANNESS . It is likened to a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 6:7

As a fountain casteth out ; rather, as a cistern keepeth fresh (literally, cool). The wickedness of Jerusalem is so thoroughly ingrained that it seems to pass into act by a law of nature, just as a cistern cannot help always yielding a supply of cool, fresh water. Violence and spoil ; rather, injustice and violence (so Jeremiah 20:8 ; Amos 3:10 ; Habakkuk 1:3 ). Before me , etc.; rather, before my face continually is sickness and wounding . The ear is constantly dinned with... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 6:7

Wells of wickedness. I. IF WICKEDNESS IS ABUNDANT AND PERSISTENT , IF MUST COME FROM A DEEP SOURCE . The wickedness of Israel is constantly renewed—ever fresh and abundant, like water in a well. Such water must flow out of deep fountains. The continuity of a course of sin proves that its origin is deep seated. The sin of hasty temper is less than that of deliberate calculation, the fall before sudden temptation more excusable than the willful choice of evil, the... read more
