Jeremiah 2:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 2:10

8 The priests did not say, ‘Where is the Lord?’
And those who handle the ^alaw did not know Me;
The rulers also transgressed against Me;
^bThe prophets prophesied by Baal,
And walked after things that do not profit.

9 “Therefore ^aI will yet bring charges against you,” says the Lord,
“And against your children’s children I will bring charges.

10 For pass beyond the coasts of¹ Cyprus and see,
Send to¹ Kedar and consider diligently,
And see if there has been such a ^athing.

11 ^aHas a nation changed its gods,
Which are ^bnot gods?
^cBut My people have changed their Glory
For what does not profit.

12 Be astonished, O heavens, at this,
And be horribly afraid;
Be very desolate,” says the Lord.

13 “For My people have committed two evils:
They have forsaken Me, the ^afountain of living waters,
And hewn themselves cisterns—broken cisterns that can hold no water.
