Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 30:10-17

In these verses, as in those foregoing, the deplorable case of the Jews in captivity is set forth, but many precious promises are given them that in due time they should be relieved and a glorious salvation wrought for them. I. God himself appeared against them: he scattered them (Jer. 30:11); he did all these things unto them, Jer. 30:15. All their calamities came from his hands; whoever were the instruments, he was the principal agent. And this made their case very sad that God, even their... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 30:11

For I am with thee, saith the Lord, to save thee ,.... Not only from temporal enemies, but from spiritual ones, sin, Satan, and the world; and to save them with a spiritual and everlasting salvation, which the presence and power of God, through his rich grace, will bring all his people to: though I will make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee ; a full end has been made of the Assyrians, Chaldeans, and Egyptians; these people... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 30:11

Verse 11 He repeats in other words what we have already stated, but for the purpose of giving fuller support to trembling and wavering minds. God then promises that he would be present with his people to save them. Now as this could not easily be believed, and as the Jews looking only on their state at that time could not but despair, the Prophet added this comparison between them and the Gentiles. The Chaldeans and the Assyrians flourished seventy years in every kind of wealth, in luxuries, in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 30:5-11

The great judgment of Israel's deliverance. It is nothing less than the "day of Jehovah" which the prophet sees in spirit—a day which is "great" ( Jeremiah 30:7 ; comp. Joel 2:11 ; Zephaniah 1:14 ) and terrible ( Jeremiah 30:5 , Jeremiah 30:6 ; comp. Amos 5:18 , Amos 5:20 ; Isaiah 13:6 ; Joel 2:1 , Joel 2:11 ) for Israel, a day of "trouble" ( Jeremiah 30:7 ), but for his enemies of destruction. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 30:10-11

Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, etc. These two verses, omitted in the Septuagint, are among the passages which Hitzig (carrying out an idea of Movers) attributes to the editorial hand of the author (a pious Jew of the Captivity, according to him) of Isaiah 40-66; and it cannot be denied that the tone and phraseolegy of Isaiah 66:10 is more akin to that of Isaiah 40:1-31 :66, than to those of the greater part of Jeremiah. Graf, in controverting Hitzig's view, points out,... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 30:10-11

Fear not. I. WHY ISRAEL MIGHT FEAR . For various reasons, viz.: 1 . Present trouble. Already some had been led into exile. What was thus experienced seemed to presage future and worse distress. Grief tends to despondency. In disappointment we are ready to think that all things must grow worse and worse. 2 . The anticipation of necessary punishment. This is confirmed in the prophetic message—'' for I cannot leave thee altogether unpunished." Guilt is the parent of fear.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 30:11

In measure; rather, according to what is just; i.e. not capriciously, to satisfy a feeling of revenge such as the untaught mind is apt to ascribe to God (see on Jeremiah 10:24 ). And will not, etc.; rather, for I cannot. read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 30:10-11

These two verses are considered by some very similar in style to the last 27 chapters of Isaiah. The contrast, however, between the full end made with the pagan, and the certainty that Israel shall never so perish, is one of Jeremiah’s most common topics.Jeremiah 30:11In measure - See the Jeremiah 10:24 note. read more
