Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 42:4

_ _ I have heard — that is, I accede to your request.

_ _ your God — Being His by adoption, ye are not your own, and are bound to whatever He wills (Exodus 19:5, Exodus 19:6; 1 Corinthians 6:19, 1 Corinthians 6:20).

_ _ answer you — that is, through me.

_ _ keep nothing back — (1 Samuel 3:18; Acts 20:20).

Jeremiah:
The princes seem to have wholly neglected Jeremiah, till on this occasion they wanted his sanction to their purpose of going to Egypt. In order to induce him to favour them, they applied to him with one consent, in the most respectful and plausible manner. They used language to prepossess him with a favourable opinion of them, and to move his compassion; and, in words expressing great humility, they entreated his prayers in their behalf, and that he would enquire of the Lord what he would have them to do. The prophet readily acquiesced; and doubted not but that he should receive an answer from God, which he would unreservedly declare to them; and they called the Lord to witness that they would implicitly follow his directions.

I will pray:

Exodus 8:29 And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will intreat the LORD that the swarms [of flies] may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.
1 Samuel 12:23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

whatsoever:

2 Chronicles 18:13-15 And Micaiah said, [As] the LORD liveth, even what my God saith, that will I speak. ... And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou say nothing but the truth to me in the name of the LORD?
Ezekiel 2:7 And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they [are] most rebellious.

I will keep:

1 Samuel 3:17-18 And he said, What [is] the thing that [the LORD] hath said unto thee? I pray thee hide [it] not from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide [any] thing from me of all the things that he said unto thee. ... And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It [is] the LORD: let him do what seemeth him good.
Psalms 40:10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.

Acts 20:27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
