These blessings come in their fulness only through Jesus Christ, the messianic Son of David, the Great High Priest (Matthew 22:42-44; Acts 13:33-34; Hebrews 4:14; Hebrews 10:11-18). JEREMIAH 33. God has a plan. That which was before said to be the name of Christ (says Mr. Gataker) is here made the name of Jerusalem, the city of the Messiah, the church of Christ. Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers. This is one of the ways we as Christians make sense of verse 17 with its promise that Never shall there be an end to [the line of] David, a man sitting upon the throne of the house of Israel. The discrepancy between the recorded promises of God in Jeremiahs time and the lack of an Israelite king in Jesus time is perhaps one of the reasons why Luke and Matthew took such pains to record the parentage of Jesus through King David. When it is so, let us learn to exercise faith and patience, so that our souls may not tremble, though Gods promises may not every moment manifest their power by being actually fulfilled. Here also must "the good word" be taken in the same general meaning; for our verse forms the transition from the promise of the restoration and blessing of Israel in the future (Jeremiah 33:6-13) to the special promise of the renewal and completion of the Davidic monarchy (Jeremiah 33:15.). As they were then exposed to slaughter, though the unbelieving still entertained vain hopes, yet the children of God saw thousand deaths; so that it could not be but that terror almost drove them to despair; and in their exile they saw that they were far removed from their own country, without any hope of a return.

Wasn't Christ sacrificed once and for all? - As to the kind and mode of reinstitution of both of these ordinances, which were abolished when the state came to ruin, the prophecy now before us gives no explanation; but in the emphatic confirmation of the prophecy which follows, we find brief indications which clearly show that the restoration spoken of will not be a reinstitution of the old form which is now perishing, but a renovation of it, in its essential features, to a permanent existence.

Destitution does not have the last word. 15 "'In those days and at that time I will make a righteous Branch sprout from David's line; he will do what is just and right in the land. There was peaceful cooperation between them and together they helped to reestablish Israel (Zechariah 6:13). But taken together, the verses tip us toward a sense of kinship, a promise of God which is fulfilled in multiple ways and which includes ever more than we could possibly imagine. For thus saith Jehovah: David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; neither shall the priests of the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt-offerings, to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.".

The confirmations of these promises, which follow them in Jeremiah 33:19-26, are each introduced by separate headings, perhaps not merely to render them more prominent, but because the Lord revealed them separately to the prophet; but it by no means follows from this that they are later additions, without any connection. He it is that imparts righteousness to her, for he is made of God to us righteousness, and she, by bearing that name, professes to have her whole righteousness, not from herself, but from him. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord . Has God turned off Israel? Jeremiah was in prison, and the Lord appeared to him a second time (Jer. The institution of the priesthood is certainly not represented in the law as a covenant; it consisted merely in the choice of Aaron and his sons as priests by God, Exodus 28:1. Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying, Thus saith the LORD the maker, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name; Call unto me, and I will answer thee ( Jeremiah 33:1-3 ), Well now, he's just been calling unto the Lord.

In the previous chapter, he has purchased a piece of land, a foolish thing to do in a country soon to be conquered by invading armies. Though the promise may sometimes work slowly towards an accomplishment, it works surely. This promise of the Messiah we had before (Jeremiah 23:5; Jeremiah 23:5), and there it came in as a confirmation of the promise of the shepherds whom God would set over them, which would make one think that the promise here concerning the shepherds and their flocks, which introduces it, is to be understood figuratively. While there are no invading armies on the doorstep (at least not in the North American context), many parishioners will resonate with the fear and hopelessness of Jeremiahs original audience. ". Imprisoned for angering the king by speaking Gods truth to royal power (Jeremiah 32:3-5), Jeremiah has been lamenting to the Lord that the city will fall, and that God will do nothing to help. For God declares, that his promise would not be void, as its effects would shortly be evident, even when his mercy was known by the ten tribes and by the kingdom of Judah. For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; Neither shall the priests and the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually ( Jeremiah 33:16-18 ). In the change from to in Jeremiah 33:14, we must not, with Hengstenberg, seek a real difference; for in Jeremiah these prepositions often interchange without any difference of meaning, as in Jeremiah 11:2; Jeremiah 18:11; Jeremiah 23:35, etc. "Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and hidden things, which you do not know" (Jeremiah 33:3).

Let us then learn to embrace his promises, so that none of us may look for this or that, but know that then only he will be propitious to us, when we lean on his word. As this covenant of nature cannot be broken by men, so also the covenant of grace of the Lord with David and the Levites cannot be broken, i.e., annulled. Jeremiah 33:14-16: After the Chaos Ends Jeremiah preaches that the end marks a beginning. We are at the same time reminded, that we are not presumptuously to hope for anything, except God has spoken. 1. These are Christians, called by the apostle Peter "a royal priesthood" (1Peter 2:9), and of whom the prophecy declares that "They live and reign with Jesus Christ a thousand years!"

This then relates to the apprehensions of men when he says, I will rouse, or establish, my good word, He afterwards adds, which I have spoken; by which clause he confirms the doctrine of Jeremiah, for he shews that he was its author, and that Jeremiah brought nothing from himself, but faithfully testified of his mercy and of the liberation of the people according to the commission he had received. The nation never experienced fully all the blessings that Jeremiah pictures in this chapter. Thus saith Jahveh, If ye shall be able to break my covenant (with) the day and my covenant (with) the night, so that there shall not be day and night in their proper time, Jeremiah 33:21. or, "that good word" F21; that gracious word concerning The preacher should also acknowledge, however, that like Jeremiah, he or she speaks these words in a time when many are experiencing great loss: loss of job, of security, of home.

Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast, The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD.

The Davidic kingdom and the Levitical priesthood were the two pillars and bases of the Old Testament theocracy, on which its existence and continuance depended.

This is ushered in (Note: The portion contained within Jeremiah 33:14-26 is wanting in the lxx; for this reason, and chiefly because of the promise of the eternal duration, not merely of the royal house of David, but also of the Levitical priests, and their innumerable increase, J.
