Jeremiah 32:15 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:15

For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel
Who is the Lord God Almighty, and can do what he pleases; and is the covenant God of his people, and therefore will do them good by all his providences in the issue of things: houses, and fields, and vineyards, shall be possessed in this land;
or "bought" ^F25 in it; of which the prophet's buying this field was a pledge and earnest; signifying, that though the city now besieged should be taken, and the people carried captive, yet they should return to their own land, and purchase and enjoy houses, fields, and vineyards again, as at the present time.

Jeremiah 32:15 In-Context

13 In their presence I instructed Barukh as follows:

14 "Here is what ADONAI-Tzva'ot, the God of Isra'el, says: 'Take these contracts, both the sealed and unsealed copies, and place them in a clay jar, so that they can be preserved for a long time.'

15 For ADONAI-Tzva'ot, the God of Isra'el, says that one day homes, fields and vineyards will again be bought in this land."

16 After giving the purchase contract to Barukh son of Neriyah, I prayed to ADONAI:

17 "ADONAI, God! You made heaven and earth by your great power and outstretched arm; nothing is too hard for you.
