Jeremiah 16-17

Jeremiah forbidden to marry, Chapters 16 — 17:18 

Chapter 16

Jeremiah 16:1-4 God knows how women and children will suffer in the invasion.

O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones. (Psalm 137:8, 9)

By this we know that the invading army took Israel’s little ones and dashed their heads against the stones. God wants to spare Jeremiah this anguish.

Our Lord gives warning of the coming Tribulation period.

And woe unto those who are with child, and to those who nurse children in those days! (Matthew 24:19)

Jeremiah 16:14-15 In this darkest moment of their history, the prophet sees the brightest future. Jehovah will restore them to the land.

Jeremiah 16:17 Their iniquity is not concealed from the eye of God. v. 21 — They must recognize and obey their God.

Jer 16:20 Can a person make a god for himself? They are not gods! (ISVnn)

Chapter 17

Jeremiah 17:5 “Cursed be the man that trusteth in man.”

Jeremiah 17:7 “Blessed is the man who trusteth in the LORD.”

Jer 17:7-9 

Blessed is the person who trusts in the ʟORD, making the ʟORD his trust. 8 He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by a stream. He won’t fear when the heat comes, and his leaves will be green. In a year of drought he won’t be concerned, nor will he stop producing fruit.” 9 “The heart is more deceitful than anything. It is incurable— who can know it? (ISVnn)

Jeremiah 17:8 See Psalm 1:3.

Jeremiah 17:9-10 Only God knows how depraved the human heart really

is. No man can fathom its depths of iniquity (see Matthew 15:19). H. Message to king in the gate, 

Jer 17:14 

Heal me, ʟORD, and I’ll be healed; deliver me, and I’ll be delivered, because you are my praise. (ISVnn)

Jeremiah 17:19-27

Jeremiah 17:21-22 They are to observe the Sabbath day.

Jer 17:24

If you listen to me carefully,” declares the ʟORD, “and don’t bring a load through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, and you consecrate the Sabbath day and don’t do any work on it, (ISVnn)

Jeremiah 17:27 — Failure to obey will mean the destruction of the gates and palaces of Jerusalem.
