In the previous chapter, he has purchased a piece of land, a foolish thing to do in a country soon to be conquered by invading armies. Help us purchase electrical generators for churches. Similarly, in chapter 33, the prophet speaks of the coming restoration, the restoration of normal, everyday life. God chose, but He's cast them off. In Jeremiah 33:14 it is designated as the establishment, i.e., the realization, of the good word which the Lord has spoken concerning Israel and Judah. False prophets were popular, but truth-bearers have been persecuted in every generation, especially the one Jeremiah ministered in. Hence the stability of the promises then appears, and is seen when God raises them up, they being before hidden and concealed from the faithful. In the waste, he sees an opportunity for a fresh start. It was threatened (Jeremiah 7:34; Jeremiah 16:9) that the voice of joy and gladness should cease there; but here it is promised that they shall revive again, that the voice of joy and gladness shall be heard there, because the captivity shall be returned; for then was their mouth filled with laughter,Psalms 126:1; Psalms 126:2. THE CONTEXT Chapter 33 is the last chapter of the Book of Consolation (chapters 30-33)three hopeful chapters that promise redemption and restoration to Israel and Judah. God responds to this lament with a promise of redemption and healing for Israel (Jeremiah 33:6-18). i. Imprisoned for angering the king by speaking Gods truth to royal power (Jeremiah 32:3-5), Jeremiah has been lamenting to the Lord that the city will fall, and that God will do nothing to help. As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites who serve me. The covenant with David consisted in the promise that his kingdom should endure for ever (see Jeremiah 33:17); that with the Levites, in the eternal possession of the right to the priesthood. They are described in Hebrews. forever: Yeshua, Jesus, God saves. 2. Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah. Such is the object of this promise. "Through him (Christ) then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips that make confession to his name. In all the cities of Judah and Benjamin there shall be a habitation of shepherds,Jeremiah 33:12; Jeremiah 33:13. (u) "verbum bonum", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus, Cocceius. Israel sat on a trade route between two massive empires, Egypt and Babylon/Assyria (roughly modern-day Iraq). And then they would barbecue it and the priest would take that part for him and for the Lord and then you sit and feast on the rest of it. 23583 Coordinates: 314641N 35149E / 31. The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall have this name of the Messiah so much in their mouths that they shall themselves be called by it. A temporary loss of the throne is not thereby excluded, but only such a permanent loss as would be caused by the family of David becoming extinct, or by the kingdom in Israel either passing over to some other family, or in some way or other coming to an end; see on 1 Kings 2:4. Sermon Jeremiah 33:14-16 Time of Fulfillment The Rev. But the burnt offerings were offerings of consecration where you would bring a lamb unto the priest and they would butcher it. under the Gospel dispensation, and promised to them, who are But they are wasting their time, as the city is going to be destroyed (4-5).Nevertheless, God will not forsake his people. God repeated His promise to Jeremiah to emphasize in the minds of believers what He intended to do in the future. 15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. Last week on Christ the King Sunday, we heard about the reforms of the great King Josiah. There shall be common joy there, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; marriages shall again be celebrated, as formerly, with songs, which in Babylon they had laid aside, for their harps were hung on the willow-trees. By this, God's own people received a pledge for the re-establishment and renovation of the kingdom of God. Jeremiah was in prison, and the Lord appeared to him a second time (Jer. 269), "Nothing can be so preposterous and unreasonable as to find in this passage, Jeremiah 33:19-26, or in Jeremiah 30-33 generally, additions by a later prophet."). But Israel did not maintain its loyalty to God. Is God through with Israel? A righteous Branch will spring up. "God, I consecrate my life to You." Such a view explains this addition to our passage, to which critics such as Hitzig have taken objection. And we are made the righteousness of God in him. Or, "are coming" {t}; future times are respected; yet such as The formula , "there never will be cut off from David one sitting," etc., has the meaning, David will never want a descendant to occupy his throne; or, the posterity of David will possess the kingdom for ever. He will remove all barriers and bring them into direct fellowship with himself (33-34). Hence he says, The days shall come; for it behoved the faithful to look farther than to their present condition. To a people devastated by loss, Jeremiahs prophecy offered hope: The days are surely coming, says the LORD, when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah (33:14). : Yoh 3:14-18) Perjanjian Lama: Kejadian Keluaran Imamat Bilangan Ulangan Yosua Hakim-hakim Rut 1 Samuel 2 Samuel 1 Raja-raja 2 Raja-raja 1 Tawarikh 2 Tawarikh Ezra Nehemia Ester Ayub Mazmur Amsal Pengkhotbah Kidung Agung Yesaya Yeremia Ratapan Yehezkiel Daniel Hosea Yoel Amos Obaja Yunus Mikha Nahum Habakuk Zefanya Hagai Zakharia Maleakhi People will not need priests as mediators between them and God, because God himself will deal with their sins. Verse 1. As a rightful King. In short, the true application of prophetic truth is, that we never lay hold on, and really embrace the promises of God, except we look forward to the days that are coming, that is, except we patiently wait for the time prefixed by God: and further, except our faith leans on the promises, when they seem to he dormant, it is not firm, and has no roots or foundations; for as the root which nourishes the tree is not seen, but lies hid in the earth, and as the foundation of a house is not visible to our eyes, so ought our faith to be in like manner founded, and to drive deep roots into Gods promises, so that its firmness may not be in the air, nor have a visible surface, but a hidden foundation. The worst has not yet happened, but it is inevitable. that good thing that came out of Nazareth: the good Shepherd that anointing glory of god prophetic prophetic word rene picota unity Sep 14, 2022. This promise is, Jeremiah 33:17, further confirmed by the renewal of that which the Lord had given King David, through Nathan the prophet, 2 Samuel 7:12-16, and that, too, in the form in which David himself had expressed it in his address to Solomon, shortly before his death, 1 Kings 2:4, and in which Solomon had repeated it, 1 Kings 8:25 and 1 Kings 9:5. In fact, this promise helps us see the breadth of the hope promised by God to David and his line, which includes all who put their hope in the Branch. Much of this chapter is challenged by the critics who point out that Jeremiah 33:14-26 are missing from the LXX, and that the apparent prophecies of the endless succession of a Davidic line of kings and a restoration and perpetual continuity of the Levitical priesthood with its countless sacrifices are totally contrary to other . While there are no invading armies on the doorstep (at least not in the North American context), many parishioners will resonate with the fear and hopelessness of Jeremiahs original audience. A branch will sprout. But from this manner of speaking, a useful doctrine may be deduced: for we are thus reminded that the promises of God are not always so manifest, that their effect or accomplishment is evident to us, but on the contrary they may appear to be dead and void. It was just an offering of fellowship. He had been divinely called to denounce Israel's spiritual apostasy and proclaim severe judgement upon them. Nam, sine rege, erant veluti corpus truncum aut mutilum; sine sacerdote mera erat dissipatio. Especially in this season of Advent, we speak words of hope. The continuity of a succession of rulers on the literal throne of David and the perpetual ministrations of the Levitical order in their offerings of burnt-offerings, etc., represented to the Jew the full and perpetual restoration of his national life, along with freedom from oppressive foreign rule, and restoration of all the rights and privileges of his holy religion: Furthermore, it was impossible for the Jewish mind to have comprehended such marvelous blessings apart from such promises as are found in these five verses. Jeremiah now shews why God had promised that there would be a quiet habitation for shepherds, so that no one would by force take away their flocks. Presently desolate Jerusalem and the cities of Judah would experience joy and thank God because He will have restored their fortunes as they had been formerly. "The opening movement assigns to Jeremiah, while still imprisoned, a vision of the future based upon the elements in the siege. The designation of the priests as "the Levites" corresponds, accordingly, to the kings of the family of David. Thus saith Jahveh: If my covenant with day and night doth not exist, if I have not appointed the laws of heaven and earth, Jeremiah 33:26. pp. of
(Revelation 1:5,6, KJV). The prophetic word from God was realized in the person of Jesus Christ, the person that the disciples, the apostles, and the early Christian authors believed was the Davidic king who would sit on the throne of Israel nay, the throne of heaven! But until its fall, the citizens of Jerusalem were trapped, suffocating in a city that was rapidly running out of food and water and even more rapidly acquiring sickness and disease. The word of God, when it denounces all kinds of death, and contains nothing but terrors, is always good, if goodness be taken for what is just and right; and hence God, by Ezekiel, reproves the Jews, because his word was bitter to them, and says, Are the ways of the Lord crooked and thorny? The preacher would do well to speak about that historical situation so that the words of promise and hope are heard in all their power. This promise concerned the whole priesthood in the person of Phinehas, and the Levites also, inasmuch as the Levites were given to the priests; hence there is mention made in Malachi 2:4, Malachi 2:8, of a covenant with Levi. That which was before said to be the name of Christ (says Mr. Gataker) is here made the name of Jerusalem, the city of the Messiah, the church of Christ. In the remaining nine occurrences of the phrase in the book, it points to a time of future blessing for Israel. This land that you say is desolate is going to be filled with voices of joy and happiness, voices of the bridegroom and of the bride." The wealth of the country, after their return. In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness. Notice that Jeremiah 33:17. says that, from the time this prophecy was given, David would not lack a descendant to sit on the throne not of the house of Judah, but of the house of Israel. Now the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD ( Jeremiah 33:19-20 ); Now is God going to turn off Israel? It is promised that the people who were long in sorrow shall again be filled with joy. For thus saith Jehovah: David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; neither shall the priests of the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt-offerings, to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.". These New Testament passages clear up completely any problems that are alleged to appear in these verses. In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD. ], "Days are coming" (Heb. Jeremiah 33:14 Commentaries: 'Behold, days are coming,' declares the LORD, 'when I will fulfill the good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and the house of Judah. In the midst of darkness, light is about to break in. Only in a limited and preliminary way were these promises fulfilled in Zerubbabel and Sheshbazzar after the Captivity (cf. This word of tenacious hope is spoken to counteract all of the life-sapping, despair-inducing evidence to the contrary. Although his prophecies of the Messiah are not as extensive as those of Isaiah, Jeremiah nevertheless often spoke of the coming of the Messiah. If you just call upon the Lord, He will show you great and mighty things. Psalms 110:4) and are yet to be fulfilled in the reign of Messiah on earth." Why are they having sacrifices after Christ has returned? The recent rise in acts of anti-Semitism in the United States make this a danger we must take seriously. But instead of pitting the traditions against each other, perhaps there is a kinship-rope knotting us together in the final two verses of this text: the first (Jeremiah 33:17) a promise for a king of the line of David, the second (verse 18) a promise that there shall also be no end to the line of Levitical priests before [God]. While we might claim the Messiah in our tradition, we can never lay claim to the Levitical birthright or Priestly office that this verse lifts up. 10 Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast, 11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. "And the word of Jahveh came to Jeremiah, saying: Jeremiah 33:24. Nam sacerdos erat quasi medius inter Deum et populum, rex autem representabat Dei personam. It is worth noting, however, the circumstances in which the prophecy was first spoken and heard. Jeremiah 1:1-16 - The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, 2 to whom the word of . Behold, the days come that I will perform that good thing, In those days will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up to David, And this is the name wherewith ye shall be called, The Lord our righteousness.

Yes, yes, I know that we all celebrate the New Year on January 1, but because we are Christians, and because we still attend church on Sunday . A righteous Branch will spring up. Jeremiah 33:19. For God declares, that his promise would not be void, as its effects would shortly be evident, even when his mercy was known by the ten tribes and by the kingdom of Judah. And if we accept one (verse 17) as fulfilled prophecy, should we not also accept the other (verse 18)? 3. We are called to speak a word of hope and promise in a world often filled with fear and uncertainty, even despair. But to do good and to communicate forget not; for with such sacrifices God is well pleased" (Hebrews 13:15-16). In those days, and at that time, will I cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.

The nation never experienced fully all the blessings that Jeremiah pictures in this chapter. Jeremiah 33:14 New International Version 14 "'The days are coming,' declares the Lord, 'when I will fulfill the good promise I made to the people of Israel and Judah. Jeremiah knew he had been called to preach a tough message. There shall be religious joy there; temple-songs shall be revived, the Lord's songs, which they could not sing in a strange land. The Jews say that in the days of the Messiah all sacrifices shall cease but the sacrifice of praise, and to those days this promise has a further reference. How might you broaden your sermon about redemptive hope to include all of Creation, and not just humanity? They are those who experienced the new birth (Revelation 20:5). For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD ( Jeremiah 33:4-11 ). He formed it, to establish it, and therefore it shall be established till those things be introduced which cannot be shaken, but shall remain for ever. Jeremiah 33:20. These blessings come in their fulness only through Jesus Christ, the messianic Son of David, the Great High Priest (Matthew 22:42-44; Acts 13:33-34; Hebrews 4:14; Hebrews 10:11-18). In the midst of despair, hope erupts. Wait a minute. At this time, when the kingdom, with its ordinances of justice and of grace, bestowed by God, was being dissolved, the Lord, in order to keep His people from despair, declares that these two institutions, in accordance with His promise, shall not fall to the ground, but shall stand for ever. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord,. Or, "are coming" t; future times are respected; yet such as would quickly come; five or six hundred years more, and then would be fulfilled what is after promised. So he's talking about when Christ comes again and establishes the kingdom that God is going to cause the nation Israel to be again in the land and to be nurtured by the Lord. II. The before is explanatory. As a righteous king, righteous in enacting laws, waging wars, and giving judgment, righteous in vindicating those that suffer wrong and punishing those that do wrong: He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. Because of his imprisonment, Jeremiah may not know what is happening in and around the city. The blessing promised to the people in the "good word" culminates in the promise, Jeremiah 33:15., that the Lord will cause a righteous sprout to spring up for David. Both of these pillars were broken with the destruction of Jerusalem and of the temple; the theocracy the appeared to have ceased to exist. Jesus himself presses his followers for this very connection in our optional Gospel reading for today, Mark 8:27-29.

"Ye (Christians) are a spiritual house, a royal (or holy) priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ" (1Peter 2:5). And now, in this passage, Jeremiah speaks of the restoration not simply of daily life (as momentous as that is), but also of one of the chief signs of Gods favor, the restoration of the Davidic line. Dr. James D. Kegel MAY THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH AND THE MEDITATIONS OF MY HEART BE ACCEPTABLE IN YOUR SIGHT, O GOD, MY ROCK AND MY REDEEMER. Who is that Branch of righteousness growing up out of David?

To crown all these blessings which God has in store for them, here is a promise of the Messiah, and of that everlasting righteousness which he should bring in (Jeremiah 33:15; Jeremiah 33:16), and probably this is that good thing, that great good thing, which in the latter days, days that were yet to come, God would perform, as he had promised to Judah and Israel, and to which their return out of captivity and their settlement again in their own land was preparatory. c.
