Contextual Overview

1 This is a sermo which the Lorde commaunded Ieremie for to preache, saying: 2 Heare the wordes of this couenaunt and speake vnto the men of Iuda, and to all them that dwell at Hierusalem, 3 And say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Cursed be euery one that is not obedient vnto the words of this couenaunt, 4 Whiche I commaunded vnto your fathers, what time as I brought them out of Egypt from the iron furnace, saying: Be obedient vnto my voyce, and do according to all that I commaunde you, so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God: 5 And wyll kepe my promise that I haue sworne vnto your fathers, [namelye] that I woulde geue them a lande whiche floweth with milke and honie, as ye see it is come to passe vnto this day. Then aunswered I and sayde, Amen: let it be euen so Lorde as thou sayest. 6 Then the Lord sayd vnto me againe: Preache this in the cities of Iuda, and rounde about Hierusalem, & say: Heare the wordes of this couenaunt, and kepe them. 7 For I haue diligently exhorted your fathers, euer since the tyme that I brought them out of the lande of Egypt vnto this day, I gaue them warning be times, saying: hearken vnto my voyce. 8 Neuerthelesse, they would not obey me, nor encline their eares vnto me: but folowed the wicked imaginations of their owne heartes, and therefore I haue brought vpon them al the wordes of this couenaunt that I gaue them to kepe, which they [notwithstanding] haue not kept. 9 And the Lorde sayde vnto me: it is founde out that whole Israel and all these cities of Hierusalem are gone backe. 10 They haue turned them selues to the blasphemies of their forefathers, which had no lust to heare my wordes: Euen lykewyse haue these also folowed straunge gods, and worshipped them: The house of Israel and Iuda haue broken my couenaunt whiche I made with their fathers.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying. Here seems to begin a new prophecy; but when it was, and under what reign, and what time between this and the former, is not known; however, it was from the Lord, and so to be regarded.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The prophecy contained in Jer. 11–12 seems to belong to an early period of Jeremiah’s life. The covenant Jeremiah 11:2 was that renewed by Josiah in his 18th year, after the discovery of the Book of the Law in the temple 2 Kings 23:3; while Jeremiah 11:13 apparently refers to the public establishment of idolatry by Manasseh Jeremiah 21:3. The people took no hearty part in Josiah’s reformation, and the prophet therefore sets before them the consequences that will inevitably fellow upon their disloyalty to their covenant-God. The prophecy was probably called forth by the conspiracy of the men of Judah and of his own relatives of Anathoth to murder Jeremiah Jeremiah 11:18-23; Jeremiah 12:1-6, for such deeds, which but too well represented the nation’s whole course, punishment must come, if unrepented of.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XI

The prophet proclaims the tenor of God's covenant with the Jews

of old, 1-5;

and then reproves them for their hereditary disobedience, 6-19.

In consequence of this the Almighty is introduced, declaring he

will show them no pity, 11-13;

forbidding Jeremiah to intercede, 14;

rejecting their sacrifices, 15;

and in a word, condemning this fair but unfruitful tree to the

fire, 16, 17.

In what remains of the chapter the prophet predicts evil to his

neighbours of Anathoth, who had conspired against him, 18-23.

"Let us," said they, "destroy this tree, with the fruit

thereof," &c., alluding to what Jeremiah had said in the

sixteenth verse.
