Contextual Overview

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying, 2 Thus speaks Yahweh, the God of Israel, saying, Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book. 3 For, look, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, says Yahweh; and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it. 4 And these are the words that Yahweh spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah. 5 For thus says Yahweh: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. 6 Ask now, and see whether a man travails with child: why do I see every [able-bodied] man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces have turned pale? 7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it. 8 And it shall come to pass in that day, says Yahweh of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their slave; 9 but they shall serve Yahweh their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.

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.
