Jeremiah 33:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 33:6

4 “For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city and the houses of the kings of Judah, which have been pulled down to fortify against ^athe siege mounds and the sword:

5 ‘They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but only to ^afill their places with the dead bodies of men whom I will slay in My anger and My fury, all for whose wickedness I have hidden My face from this city.

6 Behold, ^aI will bring it health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

7 And ^aI will cause the captives of Judah and the captives of Israel to return, and will rebuild those places ^bas at the first.

8 I will ^acleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against Me, and I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned and by which they have transgressed against Me.

9 ^aThen it shall be to Me a name of joy, a praise, and an honor before all nations of the earth, who shall hear all the good that I do to them; they shall ^bfear and tremble for all the goodness and all the prosperity that I provide for it.’

10 “Thus says the Lord: ‘Again there shall be heard in this place—^aof which you say, “It is desolate, without man and without beast”—in the cities of Judah, in the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast,

11 the ^avoice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who will say:
^b“Praise the Lord of hosts,
For the Lord is good,
For His mercy endures forever”— and of those who will bring ^cthe sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord. For I will cause the captives of the land to return as at the first,’ says the Lord.

12 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: ^a‘In this place which is desolate, without man and without beast, and in all its cities, there shall again be a dwelling place of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.

13 ^aIn the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks shall again ^bpass under the hands of him who counts them,’ says the Lord.

14 ^a‘Behold, the days are coming,’ says the Lord, ‘that ^bI will perform that good thing which I have promised to the house of Israel and to the house of Judah:

15 ‘In those days and at that time
I will cause to grow up to David
A ^aBranch of righteousness;
He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the earth.
