Jeremiah 1:10
_ _ set thee over — literally, “appointed thee to the oversight.” He was to have his eye upon the nations, and to predict their destruction, or restoration, according as their conduct was bad or good. Prophets are said to do that which they foretell shall be done; for their word is God’s word; and His word is His instrument whereby He doeth all things (Genesis 1:3; Psalms 33:6, Psalms 33:9). Word and deed are one thing with Him. What His prophet saith is as certain as if it were done. The prophet’s own consciousness was absorbed into that of God; so closely united to God did he feel himself, that Jehovah’s words and deeds are described as his. In Jeremiah 31:28, God is said to do what Jeremiah here is represented as doing (compare Jeremiah 18:7; 1 Kings 19:17; Ezekiel 43:3).
_ _ root out — (Matthew 15:13).
_ _ pull down — change of metaphor to architecture (2 Corinthians 10:4). There is a play on the similar sounds, linthosh, linthotz, in the Hebrew for “root out ... pull down.”
_ _ build ... plant — restore upon their repenting. His predictions were to be chiefly, and in the first instance, denunciatory; therefore the destruction of the nations is put first, and with a greater variety of terms than their restoration. |
Jeremiah 1:10
The kingdoms — Having now received his commission, he is directed to whom he is to go; to the greatest, not only single persons, but whole nations, as the Babylonians, Persians, and Egyptians. To pull down — That is, to prophecy that I will pull down; which I will as certainly effect, as if thou hadst done it thyself: for, according to scripture — usage, the prophets are said to do that which they foretell shall come to pass. To plant — Metaphors taken from architects and gardeners: either the former words relate to the enemies of God, and the latter to his friends; or rather to both conditionally: if they repent, he will build them up, he will increase their families, and settle them in the land; if they do not, he will root them up, and pull them down. |
Jeremiah 1:10
See, I have this day set thee over the (l) nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
(l) He shows what is the authority of God's true ministers, who by his word have power to bear down whatever lifts itself up against God: and to plant and assure the humble and such as give themselves to the obedience of God's word, (2 Corinthians 10:4-5; Hebrews 4:12), and these are the keys which Christ has left to loose and bind, (Matthew 18:18). |
