Commentary on Jeremiah 30:13

Theological / Devotional

None to plead thy cause. Judah had been forsaken by her lovers (see on v. 14), and now she stood alone, for she had forsaken her God.

No healing medicines. The second and third clauses of this verse read literally, “[there are] no medicines for [your] ulcer, [nor] healing for you.” This repeats the truth of v. 12 (see Isa. 1:5, 6; Hosea 5:13). Again God challenges His sinning people to seek soul salvation through their Lord, who alone is, so to speak, the balm of Gilead for the wounds of sin (see on Jer. 8:22).
