Jeremiah 23:29
_ _ As the “fire” consumes the “chaff,” [Jeremiah 23:28], so “My word” will consume the false prophets (Matthew 3:12; Hebrews 4:12). “My word” which is “wheat” [Jeremiah 23:28], that is, food to the true prophet and his hearers, is a consuming “fire,” and a crushing “hammer” (Matthew 21:44) to false prophets and their followers (2 Corinthians 2:16). The Word of the false prophets may be known by its promising men peace in sin. “My word,” on the contrary, burns and breaks the hard-hearted (Jeremiah 20:9). The “hammer” symbolizes destructive power (Jeremiah 50:23; Nahum 2:1, Margin). |
