Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
If: If ye are determined to go into Egypt, the evils which ye dreaded by staying in your own land shall overtake and destroy you there; "and there shall ye die." God turned the policy of the wicked to their own destruction; for while they thought themselves safe in Egypt, there Nebuchadnezzar destroyed both them and the Egyptians. Jeremiah 42:17, Jeremiah 44:12-14, Genesis 31:21, Deuteronomy 17:16, Daniel 11:17, Luke 9:51
Reciprocal: Numbers 25:6 - in the sight of Moses 1 Kings 22:19 - Hear thou 2 Kings 12:17 - set his face Ecclesiastes 8:11 - fully Jeremiah 10:1 - General Jeremiah 44:24 - Hear
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And now therefore hear the word of the Lord, ye remnant of Judah,.... A small remnant indeed, a few that were left in the land; who ought therefore to have admired the distinguishing goodness of Providence in preserving them in it; where they should have continued and made use of their privilege, to the glory of God and their mutual good:
thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; the Lord of armies above and below, the Lord God omnipotent, and so able to protect them in their land; and who had a peculiar favour to Israel, and stood in a particular relation to them, and therefore would do it, of which they had no reason to doubt; but, disobliging him, what judgments might they not expect?
if you wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt: are resolved upon it, and are actually engaged in it; turning their faces from Judea towards Egypt, and obstinately pursuing it, nor can be reclaimed from it: the phrase expresses their resolution, impudence, and obstinacy:
and go to sojourn there: to be sojourners and strangers there, as their fathers had been before; the remembrance of which was enough to set them against going into Egypt any more.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 42:15. If ye - set your faces to enter into Egypt, &c. — Every evil that ye dreaded by staying in your own land shall come upon you in Egypt.
