--- title: "Bullinger" description: "Jeremiah" image: "/images/missing.jpg" url: "https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/bullingers-companion-bible-notes/jeremiah/30" --- **** **Jeremiah's Twentieth Prophecy** (see book comments for Jeremiah). **the LORD.** Hebrew. *Jehovah.* App-4 . **the LORD God of Israel.** See note on [Jeremiah 11:3](../../../kjv/jeremiah/11/3) . **God.** Hebrew. *Elohim.* App-4 . **in a book.** For abiding comfort and hope in the coming times of trouble. Written before the deportation. Compare [Jeremiah 30:5-11](../../../kjv/jeremiah/30/5-11) , [Jeremiah 30:12-24](../../../kjv/jeremiah/30/12-24) . A dark foreground is shown in [Jeremiah 31:37](../../../kjv/jeremiah/31/37) . **lo.** Figure of speech *Asterismos.* App-6 . **Israel.** As well as Judah. **these are the words.** This is the introduction to the two chapters. **a man** = a male. Hebrew. *zakar.* **man** = a strong man. Hebrew. *geber* . App-14 . **that day.** The interpretation here is of the day of Babylon's overthrow. The application is of the yet future Great Tribulation of [Matthew 24](../../../kjv/matthew/24) . This is in contrast with the day of Restoration. **great, &c.** = too great to have another like it. **Jacob's.** Not Israel's, for it is the natural seed that is here in question, not the spiritual. See notes on [Genesis 32:28](../../../kjv/genesis/32/28) ; [Genesis 43:6](../../../kjv/genesis/43/6) ; [Genesis 45:26](../../../kjv/genesis/45/26) , [Genesis 45:28](../../../kjv/genesis/45/28) . **break his yoke.** Reminding us of [Jeremiah 28:10](../../../kjv/jeremiah/28/10) , [Jeremiah 28:11](../../../kjv/jeremiah/28/11) . **David their king.** This is yet future. Compare Ezekiel, Jeremiah's contemporary ([Ezekiel 34:23](../../../kjv/ezekiel/34/23) , [Ezekiel 34:24](../../../kjv/ezekiel/34/24) ; [Ezekiel 37:24](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/24) , [Ezekiel 37:25](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/25) .[Isaiah 55:3](../../../kjv/isaiah/55/3) .[Hosea 3:5](../../../kjv/hosea/3/5); [Hosea 3:5](../../../kjv/hosea/3/5) ) for seven years (484-477). See App-77 . **fear thou not, &c.** Taking up [Isaiah 41:10](../../../kjv/isaiah/41/10) , [Isaiah 41:18](../../../kjv/isaiah/41/18) ; [Isaiah 43:5](../../../kjv/isaiah/43/5) ; [Isaiah 44:2](../../../kjv/isaiah/44/2) . **shall be in rest** = be [again] in rest. **in measure** = to the due measure. **unpunished** = guiltless. Reference to Pentateuch ([Exodus 20:7](../../../kjv/exodus/20/7) ; [Exodus 34:7](../../../kjv/exodus/34/7) . [Numbers 14:18](../../../kjv/numbers/14/18) ). App-92 . **that thou mayest, &c.** = for binding thee up. **all they that devour thee, &c.** Reference to Pentateuch ([Exodus 23:22](../../../kjv/exodus/23/22) ). **upon her own heap.** This cannot have a spiritual application; still less interpretation. It is literally Zion. This was written in the book, before the siege, which had already been foretold (chs. 7; 19; [Jeremiah 21:10](../../../kjv/jeremiah/21/10) , [Jeremiah 34:2](../../../kjv/jeremiah/34/2) , [Jeremiah 37:10](../../../kjv/jeremiah/37/10) ). **heap** = ruins. **palace** = fortress. **after the manner thereof:** or, upon its own site. **them:** i.e. the restored cities and palaces. **I will multiply** .

[Matthew 21:10](../../../kjv/matthew/21/10) (in grace). **engaged** = pledged. **continuing whirlwind** = a tempest rolling itself upward: i.e. a roaring tempest. **the wicked** = lawless ones (plural) Hebrew. *rasha'.* App-44 . **the latter days** = the end of the days. Reference to Pentateuch ([Genesis 49:1](../../../kjv/genesis/49/1) ). Compare [Jeremiah 23:20](../../../kjv/jeremiah/23/20) . App-92 . consider = understand.
