Jeremiah 33:15 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 33:15

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.

16 In those days Judah will be saved,
And Jerusalem will dwell safely.
And this is the name by which she will be called: ¹THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.’

17 “For thus says the Lord: ‘David shall never ^alack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel;

18 nor shall the ^apriests, the Levites, lack a man to ^boffer burnt offerings before Me, to¹ kindle grain offerings, and to sacrifice continually.’ ”
