Jeremiah 29:24-29

A narrative showing the effects of Jeremiah' s letter. Shemaiah the leader of the false prophets wrote to Zephaniah, urging him to restrain the prophet' s zeal with the prison and the stocks.

Jeremiah 29:24

To Shemaiah - Rather, concerning.

The Nehelamite - Not as in the margin; but one belonging to the village of Nehlam (unknown).

Jeremiah 29:26

Officers - Deputy high priests who had the oversight of the temple.

Mad - See II Kings 9:11 note. Many of the symbolic actions of the prophets, such as that of Jeremiah going about with a yoke on his neck, would be mocked at by the irreverent as passing the line between prophecy and madness.

Prisons - Rather, the stocks Jeremiah 20:2.

The stocks - Rather, collar.

Jeremiah 29:28

This captivity is long - Rather, It is long. God' s anger, their punishment, the exile, the time necessary for their repentance - all is long to men who will never live to see their country again.
