Jeremiah 16:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 16:7

5 For thus says the Lord: ^a“Do not enter the house of mourning, nor go to lament or bemoan them; for I have taken away My peace from this people,” says the Lord, “lovingkindness and mercies.

6 Both the great and the small shall die in this land. They shall not be buried; ^aneither shall men lament for them, ^bcut themselves, nor ^cmake themselves bald for them.

7 Nor shall men break bread in mourning for them, to comfort them for the dead; nor shall men give them the cup of consolation to ^adrink for their father or their mother.

8 Also you shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and drink.”

9 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Behold, ^aI will cause to cease from this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of¹ mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.
