Jérémie 30:20 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 30:20

Their children also shall be as aforetime
In the streets of Jerusalem, numerous and free; no more in a strange land, or subject to others, ( Zechariah 8:5 ) ; and educated in a religious manner. Some think it refers to the times of the patriarchs before the law was given; and that the meaning is, that the law being abrogated, and they now sensible of it, shall live without it, as their forefathers did. It may be understood of the church's children in a spiritual sense; that great numbers should be born again in her as formerly, who shall profess the Christian religion, and behave according to it: and their congregation shall be established before me;
the church, consisting of them; or their church state shall be settled and confirmed, and no more be destroyed, as it formerly was: and I will punish all that oppress them;
or rather, have oppressed them; all the antichristian nations, who will now suffer the wrath of God; and after this there will be no more oppressors and persecutors of the church of God.

Jérémie 30:20 In-Context

18 Ainsi parle l'Eternel: Voici, je ramène les captifs des tentes de Jacob, J'ai compassion de ses demeures; La ville sera rebâtie sur ses ruines, Le palais sera rétabli comme il était.
19 Du milieu d'eux s'élèveront des actions de grâces Et des cris de réjouissance; Je les multiplierai, et ils ne diminueront pas; Je les honorerai, et ils ne seront pas méprisés.
20 Ses fils seront comme autrefois, Son assemblée subsistera devant moi, Et je châtierai tous ses oppresseurs.
21 Son chef sera tiré de son sein, Son dominateur sortira du milieu de lui; Je le ferai approcher, et il viendra vers moi; Car qui oserait de lui-même s'approcher de moi? Dit l'Eternel.
22 Vous serez mon peuple, Et je serai votre Dieu.
