Jeremiah 7:13 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 7:13

11 Has ^athis house, which is called by My name, become a ^bden of thieves in your eyes? Behold, I, even I, have seen it,” says the Lord.

12 “But go now to ^aMy place which was in Shiloh, ^bwhere I set My name at the first, and see ^cwhat I did to it because of the wickedness of My people Israel.

13 And now, because you have done all these works,” says the Lord, “and I spoke to you, ^arising up early and speaking, but you did not hear, and I ^bcalled you, but you did not answer,

14 therefore I will do to the house which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to this place which I gave to you and your fathers, as I have done to ^aShiloh.

15 And I will cast you out of My sight, ^aas I have cast out all your brethren—^bthe whole posterity of Ephraim.

16 “Therefore ^ado not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them, nor make intercession to Me; ^bfor I will not hear you.

17 Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 ^aThe children gather wood, the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes for the queen of heaven; and they ^bpour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke Me to anger.
