Jeremias 7:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 7:5

For if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings
Or, "if ye make your ways good, and do your works well", which is what is exhorted to ( Jeremiah 7:3 ) , and respects the duties of the moral law; which are more acceptable to God than legal sacrifices, when done from right principles, and with right views, from love, in faith, and to the glory of God; which is doing good works well; the particulars of which follow: if you thoroughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;
without respect to persons, without favour and affection, without bribery and corruption; passing a righteous sentence, and making an equitable decision of the case between them, according to the law of God, and the rules of justice and equity: this respects judges and civil magistrates.

Jeremias 7:5 In-Context

3 Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Correct your ways and your devices, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

4 Trust not in yourselves with lying words, for they shall not profit you at all, saying, It is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord.

5 For if ye thoroughly correct your ways and your practices, and do indeed execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;

6 and oppress not the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and go not after strange gods to your hurt:

7 then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers of old and for ever.
