Jeremiah 31:3
_ _ Israel gratefully acknowledges in reply God’s past grace; but at the same time tacitly implies by the expression “of old,” that God does not appear to her now. “God appeared to me of old, but now I am forsaken!” God replies, Nay, I love thee with the same love now as of old. My love was not a momentary impulse, but from “everlasting” in My counsels, and to “everlasting” in its continuance; hence originated the covenant whereby I gratuitously adopted thee (Malachi 1:2; Romans 11:28, Romans 11:29). Margin translates, “from afar,” which does not answer so well as “of old,” to “in the wilderness” (Jeremiah 31:2), which refers to the olden times of Israel’s history.
_ _ with loving kindness ... drawn — (Hosea 11:4). Rather, “I have drawn out continually My loving kindness toward thee.” So Psalms 36:10, “Continue (Margin, ‘Draw out at length’) Thy loving kindness.” By virtue of My everlasting love I will still extend My loving kindness to thee. So Isaiah 44:21, “O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of Me.” |
Jeremiah 31:3
The LORD appeared (d) of old to me, [saying], (e) I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.
(d) The people thus reason as though he were not so beneficial to them now as he had been of old.
(e) Thus the Lord answers that his love is not changeable. |
