Jeremiah 32:20 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 32:20

18 You show ^alovingkindness to thousands, and repay the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them—the Great, ^bthe Mighty God, whose name is ^cthe Lord of hosts.

19 You are ^agreat in counsel and mighty in¹ work, for Your ^beyes are open to all the ways of the sons of men, ^cto give everyone according to his ways and according to the fruit of his doings.

20 You have set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, to this day, and in Israel and among other men; and You have made Yourself ^aa name, as it is this day.

21 You ^ahave brought Your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, and with great terror;

22 You have given them this land, of which You swore to their fathers to give them—^a“a land flowing with milk and honey.”

23 And they came in and took possession of it, but ^athey have not obeyed Your voice or walked in Your law. They have done nothing of all that You commanded them to do; therefore You have caused all this calamity to come upon them.

24 ‘Look, the siege mounds! They have come to the city to take it; and the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who fight against it, because of ^athe sword and famine and pestilence. What You have spoken has happened; there You see it!

25 And You have said to me, O Lord God, “Buy the field for money, and take witnesses”!—yet the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.’ ”
