Jeremiah 4:4

Context

4:4 Just as ritual circumcision cuts away the foreskin

as an external symbol of dedicated covenant commitment,

you must genuinely dedicate yourselves to the Lord

and get rid of everything that hinders your commitment to me,¹

people of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem.

If you do not,² my anger will blaze up like a flaming fire against you

that no one will be able to extinguish.

That will happen because of the evil you have done.”

Jeremiah 20:4

Context
20:4 For the Lord says, ‘I will make both you and your friends terrified of what will happen to you.³ You will see all of them die by the swords of their enemies.⁴ I will hand all the people of Judah over to the king of Babylon. He will carry some of them away into exile in Babylon and he will kill others of them with the sword.

¹tn Heb “Circumcise yourselves to the Lord and remove the foreskin of your heart.” The translation is again an attempt to bring out the meaning of a metaphor. The mention of the “foreskin of the heart” shows that the passage is obviously metaphorical and involves heart attitude, not an external rite.

²tn Heb “lest.”

³tn Heb “I will make you an object of terror to both you and your friends.”

⁴tn Heb “And they will fall by the sword of their enemies and [with] your eyes seeing [it].”
