Jeremias 40:4

Study

       

4 Se, nu tager jeg i Dag Lænkerne af dine Hænder. Hvis det tykkes dig godt at drage med mig til Babel, så drag med, og jeg vil have Øje med dig; men tykkes det dig ilde, så lad være! Se, hele Landet står dig åbent; gå, hvor det tykkes dig godt og ret!"

Commentary

 

Word

  

'Word,' as in Isaiah 9:8, signifies the doctrine of internal and external worship. 'Word,' as in Psalms 119:6-17, stands for doctrine in general.

'The Word,' as in Psalms 147:18, signifies divine good united with divine truth.

The whole Word is nothing but the doctrine of love towards the Lord, and love towards our neighbor, as in Matthew 22.
