Jeremías 4:12 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 4:12

Even a full wind from those places shall come unto me
That is, a strong one, very vehement; or, "a wind which is fuller than these", as the Syriac version renders it; which is stronger than those winds which are fit for fanning and winnowing the chaff from the wheat. Jarchi interprets it, a wind full of those punishments which God had threatened, and determined to bring upon this people, and would not turn from, nor repent of: and the phrase "shall come unto me" regards not the prophet, nor the people of the Jews, whom he represented, but the Lord himself; and shows that the wind is at his command, and when he calls, it comes unto him, and obeys his will, ( Psalms 148:8 ) and that all afflictions, judgments, and punishments for sin, are from him: now also will l give sentence against them;
not the prophet, but the Lord, who would now call them to his bar, try their cause, reprove them for their sins, pronounce sentence against them, and execute it. The Targum is,

``because they have wandered after the false prophets, who prophesied to them in a spirit of falsehood; therefore the armies of the people, higher than those, as the wind shall come against them; even now by my word I will bring them, and pronounce the vengeance of my judgments on them.''

Jeremías 4:12 In-Context

10 Yo dije: «¡Ah, SEÑOR mi Dios,cómo has engañado a este pueblo y a Jerusalén!Dijiste: “Tendrán paz”,pero tienen la espada en el cuello».

11 En aquel tiempo se les diráa este pueblo y a Jerusalén:«Desde las estériles lomas del desiertosopla un viento abrasadoren dirección a la capital de mi pueblo.No es el viento que sirve para aventarni para limpiar el trigo;

12 el viento que haré venires demasiado fuerte para eso,porque yo mismodictaré sentencia contra ellos».

13 ¡Mírenlo avanzar como las nubes!¡Sus carros de guerra parecen un huracán!¡Sus caballos son más veloces que las águilas!¡Ay de nosotros! ¡Estamos perdidos!

14 Jerusalén, limpia de maldad tu corazónpara que seas salvada.¿Hasta cuándo hallarán lugar en tilos pensamientos perversos?
