Jeremias 38:17

¹⁷ Então Jeremias disse a Zedequias: Assim diz o Senhor, Deus dos exércitos, Deus de Israel: Se te renderes aos príncipes do rei de Babilônia, será poupada a tua vida, e esta cidade não se queimará a fogo, e viverás tu e a tua casa.

The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms # 105

105. Internal Meaning of Jeremiah, Chapter 39

1-3 By reasonings from falsities the remnants of doctrine will perish. (2)

4-8 They have been wholly falsified, even until there is no truth in them. (2)

9-10 The simple understanding of the Word had not yet been devastated, (2, 3)

11-14 because they were not in reasonings from falsities, but only in externals of doctrine. (2, 11)

15-18 The remnant of doctrine will be falsified, but not yet. (2)
