Jeremiah 30:23 NIV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 30:18-24

We have here further intimations of the favour God had in reserve for them after the days of their calamity were over. It is promised, I. That the city and temple should be rebuilt, Jer. 30:18. Jacob's tents, and his dwelling places, felt the effects of the captivity, for they lay in ruins when the inhabitants were carried away captives; but, when they have returned, the habitations shall be repaired, and raised up out of their ruins, and therein God will have mercy upon their dwelling places,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 30:23

Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord goeth forth with fury ,.... That is, the wrath of God, which like a whirlwind comes suddenly, with great force and strength, and carries all before it; there is no withstanding it; such is the wrath of God against the enemies of his church and people: a continuing whirlwind ; whirlwinds, as they come suddenly, are generally soon over; but this will continue very boisterous and terrible, until it has done all the execution designed by it: it shall fall... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 30:23

Verse 23 The Prophet seems to speak abruptly; for nothing could be more delightful than the promise that God gives, that he would be a Father to the people; but he immediately adds, that there would arise an involving whirlwind, which would abide on the head of the wicked. These things, at the first view, seem not to harmonize. But the latter sentence may be applied to the heathens, or to any of the enemies of the Church; for whenever God appears as the Savior of his people, his vengeance goes... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 30:23-24

These verses occur in a form evidently more original in Jeremiah 23:19 , Jeremiah 23:20 . In all probability they were first inserted from memory in the margin, and then incorporated into the text at a time subsequent (how long subsequent we cannot say) to Jeremiah. read more

Compare the marginal reference. These verses would more appropriately be attached to the next chapter, for which they form a suitable introduction. read more

Joseph Benson

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 30:23-24

Jeremiah 30:23-24. Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord goeth forth with fury Rather, with anger, the word fury being manifestly improper when applied to God. These two verses occur with some slight variations, Jeremiah 23:19-20, where see the notes. In the latter days ye shall consider it The latter days here may signify the time to come; but they commonly imply the times of the gospel, that being the last dispensation, and what should continue till the end of the world. Thus... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 30:1-24

Disease, suffering and healing (30:1-24)Although he has been prophesying the captivity of Judah, Jeremiah knows also that after seventy years the people will return to their homeland. A theme of hope and encouragement runs through the next few chapters (30:1-3).The suffering of God’s people will almost be more than they can bear, but God assures them that it will not last indefinitely (4-7). He will release them from bondage and give them independence and peace under the rule of the Davidic... read more
