John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 29:19

Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the Lord ,.... Which were spoken to them by the prophets; not hearkening to them, but despising them, were the same as not hearkening to him, and despising him; contempt of God, and his word, was the cause of their ruin; see 2 Chronicles 36:15 ; which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets ; such as Hosea, Isaiah, Micah, Jeremiah, and others: rising up early, and sending them ; which denotes the frequency of their mission;... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:10

For thus saith the Lord - It has been supposed that a very serious transposition of verses has taken place here; and it has been proposed to read after Jeremiah 29:9 ; the sixteenth to the nineteenth inclusive; then the tenth, and on to the fourteenth inclusive; then the twentieth, the fifteenth, the twenty-first, and the rest regularly to the end. That after seventy years be accomplished - מלאת לפי lephi meloth , "at the mouth of the accomplishment," or "fill to the mouth."... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:11

Thoughts of peace - Here God gives them to understand, That his love was moved towards them. That he would perform his good word, his promises often repeated, to them. That for the fulfillment of these they must pray, seek, and search. That he would hearken, and they should find him; provided, 5. They sought him with their whole heart, Jeremiah 29:10-13 . read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:17

Behold, I will send upon them the sword - Do not envy the state of Zedekiah who sits on the throne of David, nor that of the people who are now in the land whence ye have been carried captive, ( Jeremiah 29:16 ;), for "I will send the sword, the pestilence, and the famine upon them;" and afterwards shall cause them to be carried into a miserable captivity in all nations, ( Jeremiah 29:18 ;); but ye see the worst of your own case, and you have God's promise of enlargement when the proper... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:10

Verse 10 In order to expose the dreams by which the false prophets had inebriated the people, he again repeats what he had said, that the end of their exile could not be expected until the end of seventy years. And this way of teaching ought to be particularly observed, for the truth of God will ever avail to dissipate all the mists in which Satan never ceases to envelop the pure truth. As then we have before seen, that when the people are imbued with any error, it ought to be boldly resisted;... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:11

Verse 11 He confirms the same thing, and employs many words, because it was difficult to raise up minds wholly broken down. For the world labors under two extreme evils, — they sink in despair, or are too much exalted by foolish pride: nay, there is no moderation except when ruled by God’s Spirit we recumb on his word; for when they devise vain hopes for themselves, they are immediately rapt up above the clouds, fly here and there, and in short think that they can climb into heaven; this is the... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 29:12

Verse 12 Jeremiah pursues the same subject, even that the Jews, after having undergone the punishment allotted to them by God, would at length return to their own country and find God merciful, and hence learn that their chastisement in exile would prove useful to them. He had indeed in the last verse explained this with sufficient clearness, but he now expresses the manner; and that would be by calling on God. he uses two words, Ye shall call on me, he says, and pray. The verb put between... read more
