Commentary on Jeremiah 3:5
Theological / DevotionalWill he reserve? This seems to be a continuation of the supposed address begun in v. 4. The people express their confidence that the anger of their divine Husband will pass in spite of their unfaithfulness.
Thou hast spoken. A sharp contrast is drawn between Judah’s specious words and her idolatrous ways.
As thou couldest. Or, “that you were able.” Judah used all her powers in doing evil.
