Jeremiah 26:2-3

Context
26:2 The Lord said, “Go stand in the courtyard of the Lord’s temple.¹ Speak out to all the people who are coming from the towns of Judah to worship in the Lord’s temple. Tell them everything I command you to tell them. Do not leave out a single word! 26:3 Maybe they will pay attention and each of them will stop living the evil way they do.² If they do that, then I will forgo destroying them³ as I had intended to do because of the wicked things they have been doing.⁴

¹sn It is generally agreed that the incident recorded in this chapter relates to the temple message that Jeremiah gave in 7:1-15. The message there is summarized here in vv. 3-6. The primary interest here is in the response to that message.

²tn Heb “will turn from his wicked way.”

³tn For the idiom and translation of terms involved here see 18:8 and the translator’s note there.

sn The Lord is being consistent in the application of the principle laid down in Jer 18:7-8 that reformation of character will result in the withdrawal of the punishment of “uprooting, tearing down, destroying.” His prophecies of doom are conditional threats, open to change with change in behavior.

⁴tn Heb “because of the wickedness of their deeds.”
