Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Jeremiah 12:1-17

Jeremiah 12:4 . He shall not see our last end. This is sadducean language, as Psalms 104:5. “The Lord will not see, neither will the God of Jacob regard.” This species of atheism blunts the edge of the ministry, and utterly supersedes the moral principle. Why then do the wicked fear the future? The mere probability of a day of final scrutiny should deter the unbeliever from the dreadful game of crime. Jeremiah 12:5 . How wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan. The river derives its name... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 12:16

Jer 12:16 And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, The LORD liveth; as they taught my people to swear by Baal; then shall they be built in the midst of my people. Ver. 16. If they will diligently learn. ] Heb., Learning, learn the ways of my people, chalked out unto them in my Word, and their conformity thereunto; for the lives of God’s people are but the Word exemplified, they walk as patterns of the rule, and are of exemplary... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Jeremiah 12:17

Jer 12:17 But if they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, saith the LORD. Ver. 17. But if they will not obey. ] The tartness of the threatening maketh us best taste the sweetness of the promise, and a mixture of them serves to keep the heart in the best temper. I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation. ] This is fulfilled to the utmost upon the Jews, especially since the last destruction of Jerusalem. read more
