Commentary

 

Jeremiah

  
A detail from the Winchester Bible, this shows God putting words in the mouth of Jeremiah.

Jeremiah represents the Lord. (Arcana Coelestia 2838[2]).

In Jeremiah 13:7, Jeremiah here signifies the state of the church. (Divine Love and Wisdom 15[4]).

In Jeremiah 38:6, his representation is that same as Joseph's when he was thrown into the pit by his brothers -- that divine truths were rejected by falsities. (Arcana Coelestia 4728).
