Contextual Overview

¹ CONCERNING THE SONS OF AMMON thus saith the Lord, Are there no sons in Israel? or have they no one to succeed them? wherefore has Melchol inherited Galaad, and why shall their people dwell in their cities? ² Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will cause to be heard in Rabbath a tumult of wars; and they shall become a waste and ruined place, and her altars shall be burned with fire; then shall Israel succeed to his dominion. ³ Howl, O Esebon, for Gai has perished; cry, ye daughters of Rabbath, gird yourselves with sack-clothes, and lament; for Melchol shall go into banishment, his priests and his princes together. ⁴ Why do ye exult in the plains of the Enakim, thou haughty daughter, that trustest in thy treasures, that sayest, Who shall come in to me? ⁵ Behold, I will bring terror upon thee, saith the Lord, from all the country round about thee; and ye shall be scattered every one right before him, and there is none to gather you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord,.... The word of prophecy, us the Targum. Some make this to be the "thirteenth" sermon of the prophet's; it is a consolatory one, as Kimchi observes:

saying; as follows:

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

In Jer. 30–39, not all written at the same time, are gathered together whatsoever God had revealed to Jeremiah of happier import for the Jewish people. This subject is “the New covenant.” In contrast then with the rolls of Jehoiakim and Zedekiah, we here have one containing the nation’s hope. A considerable portion was written in the 10th year of Zedekiah, when famine and pestilence were busy in the city, its capture daily more imminent, and the prophet himself in prison. Yet in this sad pressure of earthly troubles Jeremiah could bid his countrymen look courageously onward to the fulfillment of those hopes, which had so constantly in his darkest hours comforted the heart and nerved the arm of the Jew. The scroll consists of three portions:

(1) “a triumphal hymn of Israel’s salvation,” Jer. 30–31;

(2) Jeremiah 32:0; and

(3) Jeremiah 33:0.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXX

This and the following chapter must relate to a still future

restoration of the posterity of Jacob from their several

dispersions, as no deliverance hitherto afforded them comes up

to the terms of it; for, after the return from Babylon, they

were again enslaved by the Greeks and Romans, contrary to the

prediction in the eighth verse; in every papistical country

they have laboured under great civil disabilities, and in some

of them have been horribly persecuted; upon the ancient people

has this mystic Babylon very heavily laid her yoke; and in no

place in the world are they at present their own masters; so

that this prophecy remains to be fulfilled in the reign of

David, i.e., the Messiah; the type, according to the general

structure of the prophetical writings, being put for the

antitype. The prophecy opens by an easy transition from the

temporal deliverance spoken of before, and describes the mighty

revolutions that shall precede the restoration of the

descendants of Israel, 1-9,

who are encouraged to trust in the promises of God, 10, 11.

They are, however, to expect corrections; which shall have a

happy issue in future period, 12-17.

The great blessings of Messiah's reign are enumerated, 18-22;

and the wicked and impenitent declared to have no share in

them, 23, 24.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXX

Verse Jeremiah 30:1. The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord — This prophecy was delivered about a year after the taking of Jerusalem; so Dahler. Dr. Blayney supposes it and the following chapter to refer to the future restoration of both Jews and Israelites in the times of the Gospel; though also touching at the restoration from the Babylonish captivity, at the end of seventy years. Supposing these two chapters to be penned after the taking of Jerusalem, which appears the most natural, they will refer to the same events, one captivity shadowing forth another, and one restoration being the type or pledge of the second.
