Commentary on Jeremiah 35:2

Theological / Devotional

Rechabites. The founder of this family was Jonadab, or Jehonadab (v. 6), who lived in the days of Jehu, king of Samaria (841-814 B.C.), about 240 years earlier. It is evident that his influence was so great that Jehu was glad to have him on his side, and Jonadab was equally glad to be with Jehu because of his “zeal for the Lord” (see 2 Kings 10:15, 16). Jonadab insisted that his followers adopt a strict manner of living.
