Jeremiah 23

Studie

   

1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD.

2 Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD.

3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.

4 And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the LORD.

5 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.

6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, the LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

8 But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.

9 Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness.

10 For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right.

11 For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD.

12 Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.

13 And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.

14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.

15 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.

16 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.

17 They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.

18 For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?

19 Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked.

20 The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.

21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.

22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

23 Am I a God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off?

24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.

25 I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.

26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.

28 The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.

29 Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.

31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.

32 Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.

33 And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the LORD? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the LORD.

34 And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will even punish that man and his house.

35 Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered? and, What hath the LORD spoken?

36 And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.

37 Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the LORD answered thee? and, What hath the LORD spoken?

38 But since ye say, The burden of the LORD; therefore thus saith the LORD; Because ye say this word, The burden of the LORD, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the LORD;

39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence:

40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.

6. To the above let me add here some passages that speak more openly of the Lord’s advent:

...the Lord Himself gives you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name “God-with-us.” (Isaiah 7:14, cf. Matthew 1:22-23)

...unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; the government will be upon His shoulder. And He will call His name Wonderful, Counselor, God, Hero, Father of Eternity, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to...establish it with judgment and righteousness, from now on and even to eternity. (Isaiah 9:6-7)

There shall come forth a rod from the stem of Jesse, and a shoot from his roots shall bear fruit. The spirit of Jehovah shall rest upon Him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might.... Righteousness shall be the girdle of His loins, and truth the girdle of His thighs.... It shall come to pass in that day that the gentiles shall seek the root of Jesse, who shall stand as a banner to the people; and His resting place shall be glorious. (Isaiah 11:1-2, 5, 10)

Send the lamb to the ruler of the land, from Petra toward the wilderness, to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.... By mercy the throne has been made secure; and One sits upon it in truth, in the tabernacle of David, judging and seeking justice and hastening righteousness. (Isaiah 16:1, 5)

It will be said in that day: “Behold, this is our God; we have waited for Him to save us. This is Jehovah, whom we have waited for; we will rejoice and be glad in His salvation.” (Isaiah 25:9)

The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare the way of Jehovah; make plain in the solitude a highway for our God.... The glory of Jehovah shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.... Behold, the Lord Jehovih shall come in strength, and His arm shall rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him.... He will feed His flock like a shepherd. (Isaiah 40:3, 5, 10-11)

My elect one, in whom My soul has good pleasure.... I, Jehovah, have called You in righteousness, and...I will...give You as a covenant to the people, as a light to the gentiles, to open blind eyes, to bring out the bound from prison, those who sit in darkness from the prison house. I am Jehovah, that is My name; My glory I do not give to another.... (Isaiah 42:1, 6-8)

Who has believed our word? and on whom has the arm of Jehovah been revealed? ...He has no form...; we have seen Him, but there is no beauty.... ...He bore our infirmities and carried our sorrows. (Isaiah 53:1-2, 4-12)

Who is this who comes from Edom, with red dyed garments from Bozrah..., traveling in the greatness of His strength? “I who speak in righteousness, great to save.... For the day of vengeance is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come....” ...So He became their Savior. (Isaiah 63:1-8)

[2] Behold, the days are coming...when I will raise up to David an offshoot of righteousness, who shall reign as king and prosper, and bring about judgment and righteousness on the earth.... And this is His name that people will call Him, Jehovah Our Righteousness. (Jeremiah 23:5-6, cf. 33:15-16)

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Sound the trumpet, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and saved.... He shall speak peace to the nations; His dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth. (Zechariah 9:9-10)

Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Zion! ...behold, I am coming, to dwell in your midst.... Many nations shall cleave to Jehovah in that day, and they shall become My people. (Zechariah 2:10-11)

You, Bethlehem Ephratah, little it is that you are among the thousands of Judah; out of you shall come forth to Me the One who will be ruler in Israel, and whose goings forth are from of old, from days of eternity.... He shall stand and feed His flock in the strength of Jehovah.... (Micah 5:2, 4)

Behold, I am sending My angel, who will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the angel of the covenant, whom you have longed for, behold he is coming.... Who can endure the day of His coming? ...Behold, I am sending you Elijah the prophet, before the coming of the great and dreadful day of Jehovah. (Malachi 3:1-2, 4:5)

I was watching...and behold, coming with the clouds of heaven was one like the Son of man.... To Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, and all peoples, nations, and languages will worship Him. His dominion is the dominion of an age, which will not pass away, and His kingdom one that will not perish.... And all dominions will worship Him and obey Him. (Daniel 7:13-14, 27)

Seventy weeks are decreed for your people and for your holy city, to finish the transgression..., and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies. Know therefore and perceive, that from the going forth of the word to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince, there shall be seven weeks.... (Daniel 9:24-25)

[3] I will set His hand upon the sea, and His right hand upon the rivers. He will cry to Me, “You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.” Also I will make him My firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.... His seed I will make to endure to eternity, and his throne as the days of heaven. (Psalms 89:25-27, 29)

Jehovah said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, till I have made Your enemies Your footstool.” Jehovah shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies! ...“You are a priest to eternity, according to the order of Melchizedek.” (Psalms 110:1-2, 4, cf. Matthew 22:44, Luke 20:41-43)

I have anointed My King on Zion, My holy mountain. I will declare the decree: Jehovah has said to Me, “You are My Son, today I have begotten You. ...I will give You the nations as Your inheritance, and the ends of the earth as Your possession.... Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, lest you perish in the way.... Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him. (Psalms 2:6-8, 12)

You have made Him indeed a little less than the angels, but You have crowned Him with glory and honor. You have made Him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under His feet. (Psalms 8:5-6)

Remember, O Jehovah, David..., who swore to Jehovah and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob: “If I enter into the shelter of my house, if I go up to the couch of my pallet, if I give sleep to my eyes...until I find a place for Jehovah, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob.” Behold, we heard of Him in Ephrathah; we found Him in the fields of the forest. We will enter into His dwelling place, we will bow ourselves at His footstool.... Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and let Your saints rejoice. (Psalms 132:1-9)

The passages cited here are but a few of them.
