Commentary on Jeremiah 17:15

Theological / Devotional

Let it come. The ironical, mocking words of the unrepentant Israelites in response to Jeremiah’s forewarnings of judgments. It would seem that the people felt quite secure, and had no concept of their future troubles. This is another indication that this series of messages was early in the prophet’s ministry (see on chs. 14:1; 15:1; 16:2).
