Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 26:2

_ _ in the court — the largest court, from which he could be heard by the whole people.

_ _ come to worshipWorship is vain without obedience (1 Samuel 15:21, 1 Samuel 15:22).

_ _ all the words — (Ezekiel 3:10).

_ _ diminish not a word — (Deuteronomy 4:2; Deuteronomy 12:32; Proverbs 30:6; Acts 20:27; 2 Corinthians 2:17; 2 Corinthians 4:2; Revelation 22:19). Not suppressing or softening aught for fear of giving offense; nor setting forth coldly and indirectly what can only by forcible statement do good.

(a) That is, in that place of the temple to which the people resort out of all Judah to sacrifice.

(b) To the intent that they should pretend no ignorance, as in (Acts 20:27).
