Commentary on Jeremiah 31:3

Theological / Devotional

Everlasting. See on Ex. 12:14; 21:6; 2 Kings 5:27. The prophet comforts his people by declaring that the divine love that was manifested toward their fathers is still extended toward them, for it is eternal (see Isa. 49:14-16). They cannot fail to be “drawn” toward God with the cords of His love (see Hosea 11:4), if they do not resist His grace.
