5 tn Heb “I will punish that nation until I have destroyed them [i.e., its people] by his hand.” “Hand” here refers to agency. Hence, “I will use him.” |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 30:12) |
1 tn The particle כִּי (ki) here is parallel to the one in v. here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">5 that introduces the first oracle. See the discussion in the translator’s note there. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 30:12) |
2 tn The pronouns in vv. here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">10-17 are second feminine singular referring to a personified entity. That entity is identified in v. here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">17 as Zion, which here stands for the people of Zion. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 31:25) |
1 sn For the concept here compare Jer 31:12 where the promise was applied to northern Israel. This represents the reversal of the conditions that would characterize the exiles according to the covenant curse of Deut 28:65-67. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 31:27) |
1 tn Heb “Behold days are coming!” The particle “Behold” is probably used here to emphasize the reality of a fact. See the translator’s note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">1:6. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 31:33) |
1 tn Heb “with the house of Israel.” All commentators agree that the term here refers to both the whole nation which was divided into the house of Israel and the house of Judah in v. here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">30. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 31:33) |
5 tn Heb “in their inward parts.” The Hebrew word here refers to the seat of the thoughts, emotions, and decisions (Jer 9:8 [here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">9:7 HT]). It is essentially synonymous with “heart” in Hebrew psychological terms. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 31:40) |
6 sn The area that is here delimited is larger than any of the known boundaries of Jerusalem during the OT period. Again, this refers to the increase in population of the restored community (cf. here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">31:27). |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 33:11) |
2 sn What is predicted here is a reversal of the decimation caused by the Babylonian conquest that had been threatened in here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">7:34; 16:9; 25:10. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 33:26) |
1 tn The Hebrew particle כִּי (ki) is probably intensive here as it has been on a number of occasions in the book of Jeremiah (see BDB 472 s.v. כִּי 1.e for the category). |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 34:15) |
2 sn This refers to the temple. See Jer 7:10, 11, 14, 30 and see the translator’s note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">7:10 and the study note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">10:25 for the explanation of the idiom involved here. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 35:2) |
1 tn Heb “the house of the Rechabites.” “House” is used here in terms of “household” or “family” (cf. BDB 109 s.v. בַּיִת 5.a, b). |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 36:19) |
1 tn The verbs here are both direct imperatives but it sounds awkward to say “You and Jeremiah, go and hide” in contemporary English. The same force is accomplished by phrasing the statement as strong advice. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 37:5) |
1 tn Heb “the Chaldeans.” See the study note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">21:4 for the rendering “Babylonian.” The word “forces” is supplied in the translation here for the sake of clarity. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 37:8) |
1 tn Heb “the Chaldeans.” See the study note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">21:4 for the rendering “Babylonian.” The word “forces” is supplied in the translation here for the sake of clarity. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 37:9) |
1 tn Heb “the Chaldeans.” See the study note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">21:4 for the rendering “Babylonian.” The word “forces” is supplied in the translation here for the sake of clarity. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 37:11) |
2 tn Heb “the Chaldeans.” See the study note on here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">21:4 for the rendering “Babylonian.” The word “forces” is supplied in the translation here for the sake of clarity. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 37:13) |
1 sn The Benjamin Gate would have been a gate in the northern wall leading out toward the territory of Benjamin. It is mentioned only here and in Jer 38:7 and Zech 14:10. |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 37:13) |
2 sn Nothing further is known about Irijah. It is generally agreed that the Hananiah mentioned here is not the same as the false prophet of the same name whom Jeremiah confronted approximately six years earlier (here%27s&tab=notes" ver="">28:1, 5, 10, 15). |
| (0.5320333) | (Jer 38:1) |
1 tn The name is spelled “Jucal” in the Hebrew text here rather than “Jehucal” as in Jer 37:3. The translation uses the same spelling throughout so that the English reader can identify these as the same individual. |
