Contextual Overview

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word which came unto Jeremiah from the Lord,.... Not as following the former prophecies; for they must be delivered seventeen years after this. The prophecies of Jeremiah are not put together in their proper time in which they were delivered. The preceding prophecies were delivered in the "tenth" and "eleventh" years of Zedekiah's reign: but this

in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah; in what part of his reign is not certain; but it must be after Nebuchadnezzar had invaded the land, Jeremiah 35:11; very probably in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, after he had been the king of Babylon's servant three years, and rebelled against him, 2 Kings 24:1;

saying; as follows:

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXXV

Jeremiah is commanded to go to the Rechabites, who, on the

approach of the Chaldean army, took refuge in Jerusalem; and to

try their obedience to the command of Jonadab, (or Jehonadab,

Jeremiah 35:2; Jeremiah 10:15; Jeremiah 10:16,)

their great progenitor, who lived in the reign of Jehu, king of

Israel, upwards of two hundred and fifty years before this

time, offers them wine to drink, which they refuse, 1-11.

Hence occasion is taken to upbraid the Jews with their

disobedience to God, their heavenly Father, 12-17;

and a blessing is pronounced on the Rechabites, 18, 19.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXXV

Verse Jeremiah 35:1. The word which came - in the days of Jehoiakim — What strange confusion in the placing of these chapters! Who could have expected to hear of Jehoiakim again, whom we have long ago buried; and we have now arrived in the history at the very last year of the last Jewish king.

This discourse was probably delivered in the fourth or fifth year of Jehoiakim's reign.
