Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 32:29

_ _ burn ... houses upon whose roofs ... incense unto Baal — retribution in kind. They burnt incense to Baal, on the houses, so the houses shall be burnt (Jeremiah 19:13). The god of fire was the object of their worship; so fire shall be the instrument of their punishment.

_ _ to provoke me — indicating the design, not merely the event. They seemed to court God’s “anger,” and purposely to “provoke” Him.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 32:26-44.
