Jeremiah 33:25 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 33:25

Thus saith the Lord
In answer to the above calumny: if my covenant [be] not with day and night;
that is, if it should not stand; if it should be broken; or there should be no longer a succession of day and night: [and if] I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
concerning the course of the sun, moon, and stars, and the influence of the heavenly bodies; and concerning the fruits of the earth, the seasons of the year, seedtime and harvest, summer and winter; if these are not settled and fixed, and do not appear according to appointment and promise.

Jeremiah 33:25 In-Context

23 And the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, {saying},
24 "Have you not seen how these people speak, {saying}, 'The two clans whom Yahweh chose, he has also rejected them'? Thus they spurn my people from being a nation {before them} [any] longer.
25 Thus says Yahweh: 'If my covenant [with] day and [with] night, [the] regulations of heaven and earth, I had not established,
26 then the offspring of Jacob and David my servant I would reject, from choosing rulers from his offspring over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will restore their fortunes and I will have compassion on them.'"
