Jeremiah 31:18 - Exposition
As a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke; literally, as an untaught calf (comp. Hosea 10:11 ). Turn thou me, etc. Jeremiah has a peculiarly deep view of conversion. Isaiah ( Isaiah 1:16-20 ) simply calls upon his hearers to change their course of life; Jeremiah represents penitent Ephraim as beseeching God so to prepare him that he may indeed "turn."
