Jeremiah 30
30
Yahweh’s Promise to His People
1This is the message that Yahweh gave to Jeremiah. # 30:1 The dominant message of chs. 1–29 is that of judgment upon the nation of Israel because of her rejection of Yahweh. Then, with chs. 30–31, a new theme is introduced (summarized in 30:3). This section of Jeremiah is known as the Book of Consolation. Another good title for these chapters could be the Song of Restoration. 2Yahweh, the God of Israel, gave Jeremiah this command: “Write everything I have told you in a book. # 30:2 This “book” (scroll) would serve largely as a promissory note of future blessing (redemption) for those taken as captives to Babylon. In a sense, we all are returning captives, leaving our bondage to sin and returning to the Father’s heart (see Rom. 8:14–23). This section of Jeremiah is a potent revelation for the children of God today, for it teaches of a love that will never be lifted off his people in spite of our waywardness. 3For I decree that the time is coming when I will restore all that you have lost and bring back my captive people, Israel and Judah,” says Yahweh. “I will bring them back to possess the land that I gave to their ancestors.”
4-5Then Yahweh told me to say to Israel and Judah: # 30:4–5 This chapter and the next (see 30:4–31:40) contain at least thirteen separate messages from Yahweh: (1) A day of terror and a day of hope (see 30:4–7). (2) Yahweh’s promise to break the yoke of captivity (see 30:8–9). (3) Yahweh’s promise to bring his people to their homeland (see 30:10–11). (4) No cure for the present but abundant hope for the future (see 30:12–17). (5) The coming restoration (see 30:18–22). (6) The storm of Yahweh’s anger (see 30:23–24). (7) Israel’s return home (see 31:1–14). (8) The return of Rachel’s children (see 31:15–17). (9) The return of God’s wayward child (see 31:18–22). (10) The prosperity of God’s people (see 31:23–30). (11) Yahweh’s new covenant with his people (see 31:31–34). (12) Israel as God’s people forever (see 31:35–37). (13) The promise of Jerusalem being rebuilt (see 31:38–40).
“I, Yahweh, hear the voice of panic,
the screams of terror,
and no sound of peace anywhere.
6Now, ask yourself this and carefully consider:
can a man give birth to a child?
Then why do I see each man
gripping his sides like a woman in labor?
How terrible! Why has every face turned pale?
7A disaster! A terrible day like no other.
It will be great tribulation for Jacob, # 30:7 “Jacob” is a collective term for all the tribes of Jacob. Jacob means “heel-grabber”; the term can also be understood as a spiritual picture of the “flesh life” of the believer.
yet he will be saved out of it.
8“In that day,” declares Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies, # 30:8 Jeremiah used the title “Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies” over forty times in his writings. “I will break off the yoke from your neck and snap your chains, and foreigners will no longer enslave you. 9But Israel and Judah will be servants of Yahweh their God, and I will raise up a king for them from the lineage of David.”
10Yahweh says,
“My servant Jacob, do not fear;
Israel, do not be alarmed.
I will rescue you and your descendants
from that foreign land in which you are held captive.
You will return and live in peace,
safe and secure, with no one to trouble you.
11For I am with you and will save you,”
Yahweh declares.
“Someday, I will bring destruction to all the nations
where I have driven you,
but I will not destroy you.
I will discipline you
but in moderation.
I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”
Yahweh Will Heal Israel and Judah
12Yahweh says:
“Your wound is incurable;
your injuries are so serious, they’re beyond healing.
13Everyone has given up on you.
At least for an ulcer there are remedies,
but for you, there’s no cure at all.
14All those ‘lovers’ # 30:14 That is, Israel’s supposed allies. See 22:20. you had
have abandoned you;
they could not care less.
Yes, I struck you with cruel punishment
because of your great guilt and countless sins.
I struck you mercilessly like you were my enemy.
15There is no point in crying out over your pain,
for your wound is incurable.
I have treated you like this
because of your great guilt and countless sins.
16“But rest assured, all those who devoured you will be devoured;
all your enemies, every one of them, will go into captivity.
Those who devastated you will be devastated,
and all who made you their prey, I will make a prey. # 30:16 By the power of the cross, our Lord Jesus has fulfilled this verse regarding our spiritual enemies.
17For I, Yahweh, say to you who were once called ‘Outcast,’
I will heal your wounds. # 30:17 See Hos. 6:1–3.
And to you who were once called ‘Forgotten Zion,’
I will restore your health.”
18Yahweh says:
“See, I will restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob # 30:18 See Joel 2:25; Acts 3:21 (and the second footnote).
and have compassion on his families. # 30:18 Or “tents [dwellings].”
The city will be rebuilt on its mound # 30:18 That is, Jerusalem.
with the city fortress in its rightful place.
19Out of them will be heard the joyous songs of thanksgiving # 30:19 Or “thank offerings.”
and the raucous shouts of joy.
I will cause them to flourish and not diminish.
I will bring them honor, and they will not be humiliated.
20Their descendants will be just like they were before.
Their community will be fixed firmly before me,
and I shall punish all their oppressors.
21Their majestic prince will be one of their own. # 30:21 This prophecy is clearly Messianic and points to a Jewish prince and a ruler who was coming. The Talmud uses the words “Anointed One.” Jesus is the “majestic prince” who will have special access to Yahweh, even greater than Moses did (see Ex. 24:2). Most scholars interpret this to mean that the Messiah will combine the kingly and priestly offices. Jesus is both our King and our High Priest.
Their ruler will arise from among them,
and I will give him free and easy access to me. # 30:21 That is, “I will invite him to come into my presence.”
For who is he who will pledge his heart # 30:21 The Hebrew word for “pledge” refers to putting one’s own heart as the guarantee or pledge in order to have the privilege of access to God.
to remain close to me?” Yahweh asks.
22“You will be my very own people,
and I shall be your very own God.”
23Behold, Yahweh’s anger is like
the fury of a fearsome whirlwind
about to hit the wicked head-on with gale-force winds.
24Yahweh’s anger will not relent
until he has perfectly carried out what he has in mind.
In the latter days, you will clearly understand this.
