The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 7:13

The voice unheeded. I. GOD IS EVER SPEAKING TO HIS CHILDREN . There is a Divine voice speaking, not to favored prophets in rare moments of spiritual elevation, but to all men, that all who will may hear. This voice comes to us in many forms. 1. The voice of nature—the proclamation of the power and wisdom of God in the awful, silent speech of the stars ( Psalms 19:3 ), and the gentler language which tells of his tenderness and beneficence in the cheery songs of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 7:13-16

The Divine long-suffering worn out. The above section brings before us, as do many other Scriptures, this very certain and very serious truth of God's patience being not only exhaustible, but exhausted. We observe— I. THE DIVINE LONG - SUFFERING IS A VERY PRECIOUS FACT . Nations, Churches, individuals have not we ourselves?—have been examples of it. What have not all of us owed to the fact that the Lord is long-suffering, and" willeth not the death of a sinner, but... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 7:1-15

7:1-20:18 THE SPIRITUAL CONDITION OF JUDAHJeremiah at the temple (7:1-15)This message seems to belong to the period of religious decline that followed the death of Josiah. Though Josiah had done well to restore the temple, the people developed a wrong, even superstitious, attitude towards it. They felt that it was sacred, that it belonged to God, and that therefore he would not allow any enemy to destroy it. They thought that the presence of the temple in Jerusalem guaranteed the city against... read more
