Jeremiah 31:32

Jeremiah 31:32

30 ^aBut every one shall die for his own iniquity; every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth shall be set on edge.

A New Covenant

31 “Behold, the ^adays are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah—

32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that ^aI took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke,¹ though I was a husband to them, says the Lord.

33 ^aBut this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: ^bI will put My law in their minds, and write it on their¹ hearts; ^cand I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

34 No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for ^athey all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For ^bI will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”

35 Thus says the Lord,
^aWho gives the sun for a light by day,
The ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night,
Who disturbs ^bthe sea,
And its waves roar
^c(The Lord of hosts is His name):

John Wesley's Notes

<< Jeremiah 31:31

Jeremiah 31:33 >>

Not according - The covenant which God made with the Jews when they came out of the land of Egypt, was on God's part the law which he gave them, with the promises annexed; on their part (which made it a formal covenant) their promise of obedience to it.
