Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 22:21

_ _ I admonished thee in time. Thy sin has not been a sin of ignorance or thoughtlessness, but willful.

_ _ prosperity — given thee by Me; yet thou wouldest not hearken to the gracious Giver. The Hebrew is plural, to express, “In the height of thy prosperity”; so “droughts” (Isaiah 58:11).

_ _ thou saidst — not in words, but in thy conduct, virtually.

_ _ thy youth — from the time that I brought thee out of Egypt, and formed thee into a people (Jeremiah 7:25; Jeremiah 2:2; Isaiah 47:12).
