Jeremiah 29:26
_ _ thee ... in the stead of Jehoiada — Zephaniah’s promotion as second priest, owing to Jehoiada’s being then in exile, was unexpected. Shemaiah thus accuses him of ingratitude towards God, who had so highly exalted him before his regular time.
_ _ ye should be officers ... for every man — Ye should, as bearing rule in the temple (see on Jeremiah 20:1), apprehend every false prophet like Jeremiah.
_ _ mad — Inspired prophets were often so called by the ungodly (2 Kings 9:11; Acts 26:24; Acts 2:13, Acts 2:15, Acts 2:17, Acts 2:18). Jeremiah is in this a type of Christ, against whom the same charge was brought (John 10:20).
_ _ prison — rather, “the stocks” (see on Jeremiah 20:2).
_ _ stocks — from a root, “to confine”; hence rather, “a narrow dungeon.” According to Deuteronomy 17:8, Deuteronomy 17:9, the priest was judge in such cases, but had no right to put into the stocks; this right he had assumed to himself in the troubled state of the times. |
Jeremiah 29:26
Priest — Zephaniah was the second priest. In the stead — In the stead signifies, that thou shouldest be like the good high priest Jehoiada. Mad — That thou mightest take care of persons, who being mad or frantick make themselves prophets. |
Jeremiah 29:26
The LORD hath made thee priest in the stead of (o) Jehoiada the priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the LORD, for every man [that is] mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks.
(o) Shemaiah the false prophet flatters Zephaniah the chief priest as though God had given him the spirit and zeal of Jehoiada to punish whoever trespassed against the word of God, of that he would have made Jeremiah one, calling him a raver and a false prophet. |
- officers:
