Jeremías 35:4

4 y los llevé a la casa del SEÑOR, a la cámara de los hijos de Hanán, hijo de Igdalías, hombre de Dios, la cual estaba cerca de la cámara de los oficiales, que estaba encima de la cámara de Maasías, hijo de Salum, guarda del umbral.

Jeremías 35:4 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 35:4

And I brought them into the house of the Lord
Into the temple, as he was ordered; that is, he invited them thither, and they came along with him, having, no doubt, a respect for him as a prophet; and the rather, as it is highly probable he came in the name of the Lord to them: into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of
God;
a prophet, as the Targum and Syriac version; and so Jarchi and Kimchi interpret it. This must be understood of Hanan, and not Igdaliah, as the accents show: he is thought by some to be the same with Hanani the seer, in the times of Asa, ( 2 Chronicles 16:7 ) ; which [was] by the chamber of the princes;
these were not the princes of the blood, the sons of Jehoiachim; their chambers or apartments were not in the temple, but in the royal palace; but these were the princes or rulers of the people, as they are called, ( Acts 4:8 ) ; the sanhedrim, whose this chamber was, as Dr. Lightfoot ^F4 has observed: which [was] above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the
keeper of the door:
a porter, whose chamber or lodge was under that in which the sanhedrim sat. The Targum calls him a treasurer; one of the seven "amarcalim", who had the keys of several chambers, where the vessels of the sanctuary and other things were put; and Kimchi observes, the word we render door comprehends the vessels of the sanctuary, and the vessels of wine, and other things.

Jeremías 35:4 In-Context

2 Ve a la casa de los recabitas, habla con ellos, llévalos a la casa del SEÑOR, a una de las cámaras, y dales a beber vino.

3 Entonces tomé a Jaazanías, hijo de Jeremías, hijo de Habasinías, y a sus hermanos, a todos sus hijos y a toda la casa de los recabitas,

4 y los llevé a la casa del SEÑOR, a la cámara de los hijos de Hanán, hijo de Igdalías, hombre de Dios, la cual estaba cerca de la cámara de los oficiales, que estaba encima de la cámara de Maasías, hijo de Salum, guarda del umbral.

5 Entonces puse delante de los hombres de la casa de los recabitas jarras llenas de vino y tazas, y les dije: Bebed vino.

6 Mas ellos dijeron: No beberemos vino, porque Jonadab, hijo de Recab, nuestro padre, nos ordenó, diciendo: "No beberéis vino jamás, ni vosotros ni vuestros hijos.
