Gill's Notes on the Bible

I spake unto thee in thy prosperity,.... Or "prosperities", or "tranquillities" y; when in their greatest affluence, in the height of it; this he did, when he sent to them his servants the prophets, as the Targum, and by them exhorted, reproved, and advised them:

[but] thou saidst, I will not hear; this was the language of their hearts and actions, though not of their mouths:

this [hath been] thy manner from thy youth; from the time they came out of Egypt, and first became a church and body politic; while they were in the wilderness; or when first settled in the land of Canaan: this was the infancy of their state; and from that time it was their manner and custom to reject the word of the Lord, and turn a deaf ear to it:

that thou obeyest not my voice; in his law, and by his prophets.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Prosperity - literally, as in the margin. God spake thus not once only, but whenever Judah was at peace.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 22:21. I spake unto thee in thy prosperity — In all states and circumstances I warned thee by my prophets; and thou wilt only be ashamed of thy conduct when thou shalt be stripped of all thy excellencies, and reduced to poverty and disgrace, Jeremiah 22:22.
