Contextual Overview

1 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still shut up in the place of the armed watchmen, saying, 2 These are the words of the Lord, who is doing it, the Lord who is forming it, to make it certain; the Lord is his name; 3 Let your cry come to me, and I will give you an answer, and let you see great things and secret things of which you had no knowledge. 4 For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said about the houses of this town and the houses of the kings of Judah, which have been broken down to make earthworks and Ă¢Â€Â¢Ă¢Â€Â¢Ă¢Â€Â¢ Three dots are used where it is no longer possible to be certain of the true sense of the Hebrew words, and for this reason no attempt has been made to put them into Basic English.; 5 Ă¢Â€Â¢Ă¢Â€Â¢Ă¢Â€Â¢ Three dots are used where it is no longer possible to be certain of the true sense of the Hebrew words, and for this reason no attempt has been made to put them into Basic English. and to make them full of the dead bodies of men whom I have put to death in my wrath and in my passion, and because of whose evil-doing I have kept my face covered from this town. 6 See, I will make it healthy and well again, I will even make them well; I will let them see peace and good faith in full measure. 7 And I will let the fate of Judah and of Israel be changed, building them up as at first. 8 And I will make them clean from all their sin, with which they have been sinning against me; I will have forgiveness for all their sins, with which they have been sinning against me, and with which they have done evil against me. 9 And this town will be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth, who, hearing of all the good which I am doing for them, will be shaking with fear because of all the good and the peace which I am doing for it.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah the second time,.... Not that this was precisely the second time that the word of the Lord came to the prophet, for it had come to him many more times than those; but this was the second time on the same occasion and subject; for the subject of this chapter is the same with that of the former, concerning the Messiah, and the happiness of the church in his times:

(while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison): though the prophet could not go out from hence, and publish his prophecies, yet the Lord visits him again and again; and his presence made the prison a palace to him; and though his afflictions, abounded for the sake of him, his comforts abounded through him; and though he was bound, the word of the Lord was not; it had a free course, and ran, and was glorified; it found its way into the prison, and also out of it:

saying: as follows:

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The prison - The guard.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXXIII

In this chapter the prophet predicts a restoration of Israel

and Judah to the favour of God, attended with such glorious

circumstances as shall astonish all the world, 1-9.

Their prosperity from that period is then described by a

beautiful enumeration of circumstances, 10-13.

Thus leads to the promise of the Messiah, the grand subject of

the prophetical writings, and the happiness and stability which

the children of Israel shall enjoy under his government;

promises which, in so far as they respect the great body of the

Jews, remain still to be fulfilled, 14-26.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXXIII

Verse Jeremiah 33:1. Moreover the word of the Lord — This was in the eleventh year of the reign of Zedekiah, Jeremiah being still shut up in prison: but he was now in the court of the prison, where the elders and the king's officers, c., might consult him with the greater ease for they continued to inquire, foolishly thinking, that if he would but prophesy good things, that these must come, or that he had sufficient power with God to induce him to alter his mind,-destroy the Chaldeans, and deliver the city.
