Contextual Overview

¹ The worde of the Lorde shewed vnto Ieremie concernyng the dearth of the fruites. ² Iuda hath mourned, his gates are desolate, they are brought to heauinesse, euen vnto the grounde, and the crye of Hierusalem goeth vp. ³ The Lordes sent their seruauntes to fetche water, and when they came to the welles, they did finde no water, but caried their vessels home emptie: they be ashamed and confounded, and couer their heades. ⁴ For the grounde is dryed, because there commeth no rayne vpon it: the plowmen also be ashamed and couer their heades. ⁵ The hynde also forsoke the young fawne that he brought foorth in the fielde, because there was no grasse. ⁶ The wylde asses did stande in the hye places, and drewe in their winde lyke the dragons, their eyes did fayle for want of grasse. ⁷ Doubtlesse our owne wickednesse doth rewarde vs: but Lorde do thou accordyng to thy name, though our transgression and sinnes be many, and agaynst thee haue we sinned. ⁸ For thou art the comfort and helpe of Israel in the tyme of trouble: Why wilt thou be as a straunger in the lande, and as one that goeth his iourney, and cometh in only to remayne for a night? ⁹ Why wylt thou make thy selfe a cowarde, and as it were a giaunt that yet may not helpe? But thou O Lorde art in the middest of vs, and thy name is called vpon of vs, forsake vs not.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

O the hope of Israel,.... The author, object, ground, and foundation of hope of all good things, both here and hereafter; in whom Israel had been used to hope in times past, and had great encouragement so to do, Psalms 130:7 or, "the expectation of Israel" f; whom they looked for to come:

the Saviour thereof in time of trouble; the Saviour of all men in a way of providence, but especially of the true Israel of God, of them that believe; who, though they have their times of trouble and affliction, by reason of sin, Satan, and wicked men, and other things, yet the Lord saves and delivers them out of them all in due time:

why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land; or, a "sojourner" g; who abides but for a while; and it not being his native place, is not so solicitous for the welfare of it. Jerome interprets this of Christ when here on earth, who was as a stranger, and unknown by men; see

Psalms 69:9 and the other characters;

of the hope of Israel, and the Saviour, well agree with him, 1 Timothy 1:1

and as a wayfaring man; or "traveller" h:

that turnest aside to tarry for a night? that turns into an inn to lodge there for a night, and that only; and so is unconcerned what becomes of it, or the people in it; he is only there for a night, and is gone in the morning. Thus the prophet represents the Lord by these metaphors, as if he was, or at least seemed, careless of his people; and therefore expostulates with him upon it, as the disciples with our Lord, Mark 4:38.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 14:8. O the hope of Israel — O thou who art the only object of the hope of this people.

The Saviour thereof in time of trouble — Who hast never yet abandoned them that seek thee.

Why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land — As one who has no interest in the prosperity and safety of the country.

And as a way-faring man — A traveller on his journey.

That turneth aside to tarry for a night? — Who stays the shortest time he can; and takes up his lodging in a tent or caravanserai, for the dead of the night, that he may pursue his journey by break of day. Instead of dwelling among us, thou hast scarcely paid the most transient visit to thy land. O come once more, and dwell among us.
