Jeremiah 7:3

Lord of hosts. “Lord [Heb. Yahweh] of hosts” is one of the most majestic and awe-inspiring of all the titles of Deity (see Vol. I, p. 173). The title is common in Jeremiah (see chs. 2:19; 5:14; 7:21; 8:3; 10:16; 11:17, 20; 15:16; etc.). It emphasizes the fact that God has untold forces and powers at His command. In the OT “host” frequently refers to an army of men (see 2 Chron. 28:9; Jer. 51:3). The commander in chief of an army was designated “captain of the host” (1 Kings 1:19; etc.). Angels are also spoken of as a “host” (see 1 Kings 22:19; Neh. 9:6; Ps. 103:21; 148:2), and the term is applied also to the heavenly bodies (see Deut. 4:19; 17:3; 2 Kings 17:16; 21:3, 5; Jer. 8:2; 19:13; etc.). Israel’s God has at His command untold “hosts” of spiritual and material forces. He is Lord of the armies of heaven. He is omnipotent (see Rev. 19:6).

Amend. Literally, “make good,” “rectify,” “correct,” a characteristic expression of Jeremiah (see v. 5; chs. 18:11; 26:13).

Your ways and your doings. A frequent combination of words in Jeremiah (see v. 5; chs. 4:18; 18:11; 26:13; 35:15). “Ways” may be understood as referring to inward inclinations, settled habits or general course of life, and “doings” to the outward fruits or separate deeds that make up these customary habits.

Cause you to dwell. That is, “permit you to continue to dwell.”
