Jeremiah 33

1 God promises to the captivity a gracious return;

9 a joyful state;

12 a settled government;

15 Christ the branch of righteousness;

17 a continuance of kingdom and priesthood;

19 and a stability of a blessed seed.

33:1

spoke <01697> [A.M. 3416. B.C. 588. Moreover.]

This was the eleventh year of Zedekiah, Jeremiah being still shut up in prison; but he was now in the court of the prison, where the elders and the king's officers might consult him with the greater ease.

33:2

do <06213> [the maker.]

Osah, rather, "the Doer of it:" that is, He who is to perform that which He is now about to promise; thus rendered by Dahler; {Voici ce qui dit l'Eternel, qui fait ce qu'il a dit.} "Thus saith the Eternal, who doeth that which he hath said."

descendant <01121> [that he.]

From the destruction of Jerusalem to the present time, a period of nearly eighteen hundred years, the Jews have had neither a king nor any form of government whatever; nor has the office of high priest, or priest of any kind offering sacrifice, been exercised among them during the same period. Hence this must be understood of the spiritual David, Jesus Christ, both the king and High Priest of his church, "the Israel of God," (Ga 6:16,) in whom the covenant of royalty with David and his seed, and that of priesthood with Aaron and his seed, have received their full accomplishment; and all the sacrifices of that dispensation were superseded by his "one oblation of himself," the efficacy of which remains for ever.
