Commentary on Jeremiah 2:1

Theological / Devotional

Word of the Lord. This phrase introduces a series of prophecies extending from ch. 2 to ch. 6. This series is a retrospect of Israel’s past, and shows how present conditions are the result of past failures. The prophecy was given during the first ten years of Jeremiah’s ministry (627/26-c. 616 B.C.), probably in the 13th year of Josiah (see ch. 3:6; cf. ch. 1:2).
