Jeremías 24:6 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 24:6

For I will set mine eyes upon them for good
His eyes of omniscience, providence, and grace; to communicate good things to them; to take care of them in the furnace of affliction, that they were not lost, but made the better; to watch over them, protect and defend them; to deliver them out of their troubles, and to bring them into their own land; as follows: and I will bring them again into this land:
the land of Judea, and city of Jerusalem, where Jeremiah now was, and saw this vision: this was accomplished when the seventy years' captivity was ended: and I will build them, and not pull [them] down; and I will plant
them, and not pluck [them] up;
alluding to the building of houses, and planting of vineyards; signifying that they and their families should be built up and continue; yea, that they should be a habitation for God, and the vineyard of the Lord of hosts, of his planting, and which should remain: this will be more fully accomplished in the latter day; though it had in part a fulfilment upon the Jews' return from captivity.

Jeremías 24:6 In-Context

4 Y la palabra del SEÑOR vino a mí:

5 «Así dice el SEÑOR, el Dios de Israel: “A los deportados de Judá, que envié de este lugar al país de los babilonios, los consideraré como a estos higos buenos.

6 Los miraré favorablemente, y los haré volver a este país. Los edificaré y no los derribaré, los plantaré y no los arrancaré.

7 Les daré un corazón que me conozca, porque yo soy el SEÑOR. Ellos serán mi pueblo, y yo seré su Dios, porque volverán a mí de todo corazón.

8 »”Pero a Sedequías, rey de Judá, y a sus jefes y a los sobrevivientes de Jerusalén —lo mismo a los que se quedaron en este país como a los que viven en Egipto— los trataré como a los higos malos, que de tan malos no se pueden comer —afirma el SEÑOR—.
