<< Jeremiah 23:9   Jeremiah 23:11 >>


Jeremiah 23:10

Because of swearing - Rather, because of the curse denounced against sin Jeremiah 11:3. The mourning probably refers to the drought Jeremiah 12:4.

The pleasant places - " Pastures."

Their course - Their mode of life.

Their force is not right - " Their heroism," that on which they pride themselves as mighty men, "is not right," is wrong (see Jeremiah 8:6 note).
