Jeremías 32:27 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:27

Behold, I [am] the Lord, the God of all flesh
Jehovah, the self-existent Being, that gives being to all creatures; and is particularly the God of all men, the Maker and Preserver of them, and that provides for them; who are called "flesh", to denote their weakness and corruption, how unworthy of the divine favour, and how unable to resist his will, or hinder the execution of his purposes: and which is introduced with a "behold", to excite attention, to take notice of what was said; to encourage faith, and remove doubts and difficulties; for if God is Jehovah, the Being of beings; if he is the God and Governor of the world, and all men in it, what is it he cannot do? as follows: is there anything too hard for me?
suggesting, that though the city of Jerusalem should be destroyed, and the inhabitants carried captive, yet he could return them again to their own laud; where they should purchase fields and vineyards, and possess them as heretofore: or, "is there anything hidden from me?" ^F4 so the Targum and Syriac version; can anything unforeseen arise to hinder the fulfilment of promises and prophecies? nothing can; since all things are in one view before the Lord continually; or, "is there anything too wonderful for me?" ^F5 that which is too wonderful for men, beyond their comprehension, and so their faith; yet it is not so with God.

Jeremías 32:27 In-Context

25 Y aun así, oh Señor
Soberano, me has ordenado comprar el terreno —hasta pagué mucho dinero en presencia de estos testigos— aunque la ciudad pronto será entregada a los babilonios».

26 Predicción de la caída de Jerusalén
Después Jeremías recibió el siguiente mensaje del Señor
:

27 «Yo soy el Señor
, Dios de todos los pueblos del mundo. ¿Hay algo demasiado difícil para mí?

28 Por lo tanto, esto dice el Señor
: entregaré esta ciudad a los babilonios y a Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, y él la conquistará.

29 Los babilonios que están fuera de las murallas entrarán y prenderán fuego a la ciudad. Quemarán por completo todas estas casas, donde el pueblo provocó mi enojo al quemar incienso a Baal en las azoteas y al derramar ofrendas líquidas a otros dioses.
