| (0.30) | (Jer 35:7) | 1 tn Heb “Don’t plant a vineyard, and it shall not be to you [= and you shall/must not have one].” |
| (0.30) | (Jer 34:14) | 1 sn Cf. Deut 15:12-18 for the complete statement of this law. Here only the first part of it is cited. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 33:17) | 2 sn It should be noted once again that the reference is to all Israel, not just to Judah (cf. Jer 23:5-6; 30:9). |
| (0.30) | (Jer 32:43) | 3 tn The noun is singular with the article, but it is a case of the generic singular (cf. GKC 406 §126.m). |
| (0.30) | (Jer 32:24) | 5 tn The word “Lord” is not in the text but is supplied in the translation as a reminder that it is he who is being addressed. |

| (0.30) | (Jer 31:23) | 4 sn The blessing pronounced on the city of Zion/Jerusalem by the restored exiles looks at the restoration of its once exalted state as the city known for its sanctity and its just dealing (see Isa 1:21 and Ps 122). This was a reversal of the state of Jerusalem in the time of Isaiah and Jeremiah, where wickedness, not righteousness, characterized the inhabitants of the city (cf. Isa 1:21; Jer 4:14; 5:1; 13:27). The blessing here presupposes the rebuilding of the city of Jerusalem and the temple, which gave the city its sanctity. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 31:9) | 3 sn Ephraim was the second son of Joseph, who was elevated to a place of prominence in the family of Jacob by the patriarch’s special blessing. It was the strongest tribe in northern Israel, and Samaria lay in its territory. It is often used as a poetic parallel for Israel, as here. The poetry is not speaking of two separate entities here; it is a way of repeating an idea for emphasis. Moreover, there is no intent to show special preference for northern Israel over Judah. All Israel is metaphorically God’s son and the object of his special care and concern (Exod 4:22; Deut 32:6). |
| (0.30) | (Jer 30:18) | 3 tn Heb “according to its custom [or plan].” See BDB 1049 s.v. מִשְׁפָּט 6.d, and compare usage in 1 Sam 27:11. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 29:24) | 2 tn It is unclear whether this is a family name or a place name. The word occurs nowhere else in the Hebrew Bible. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 27:6) | 3 sn This statement is rhetorical, emphasizing the totality of Nebuchadnezzar’s dominion. Neither here nor in Dan 2:38 is it to be understood literally. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 25:30) | 1 tn The word “Jeremiah” is not in the text. It is supplied in the translation to make clear who is being addressed. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 23:30) | 2 tn Heb “who are stealing my words from one another.” However, context shows it is their own word that they claim is from the Lord (cf. next verse). |
| (0.30) | (Jer 22:1) | 2 sn The allusion here is to going down from the temple to the palace, which was on a lower eminence. See 36:12 in its context. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 21:11) | 2 tn Heb “house” or “household.” It is clear from 22:1-6 that this involved the king, the royal family, and the court officials. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 21:12) | 5 tn Heb “Lest my wrath go out like fire and burn with no one to put it out because of the evil of your deeds.” |
| (0.30) | (Jer 20:10) | 3 tn Heb “Denounce and let us denounce him.” The verb that is translated “denounce” (נָגַד, nagad) does not very often take an accusative object of person as it does here. When it does, it usually means to inform someone. The only relevant passage appears to be Job 17:5, where it means something like “denounce.” What is probably involved here are the attempts to portray Jeremiah as a traitor (Jer 26:10) and a false prophet (see his conflict with Hananiah in Jer 28). |
| (0.30) | (Jer 19:13) | 1 tn The phrase “by dead bodies” is not in the text but is implicit from the context. It is supplied in the translation for clarity. |
| (0.30) | (Jer 19:8) | 2 tn Heb “all its smitings.” This word has been used several times for the metaphorical “wounds” that Israel has suffered as a result of the blows from its enemies. See, e.g., 14:17. It is used in the Hebrew Bible of scourging, both literally and metaphorically (cf. Deut 25:3; Isa 10:26), and of slaughter and defeat (1 Sam 4:10; Josh 10:20). Here it refers to the results of the crushing blows at the hands of her enemies, which have made her the object of scorn. |
