Jeremías 7:7 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 7:7

Then will I cause you to dwell in this place
In the land of Judea, and not suffer them to be carried captive, which they had been threatened with, and had reason to expect, should they continue in their sins, in their impenitence and vain confidence: in the land that I gave to your fathers;
to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, by promise; and to the Jewish fathers in the times of Joshua, by putting them in actual possession of it: for ever and ever:
for a great while; a long time, as Kimchi explains it; from the days of Abraham for ever, even all the days of the world, provided they and their children walked in the ways of the Lord. This clause may either be connected with the word "dwell", or with the word give; and the sense is, either that they should dwell in it for ever and ever; or it was given to their fathers for ever and ever.

Jeremías 7:7 In-Context

5 Si en verdad enmiendan su conducta y sus acciones, si en verdad practican la justicia los unos con los otros,

6 si no oprimen al extranjero ni al huérfano ni a la viuda, si no derraman sangre inocente en este lugar, ni siguen a otros dioses para su propio mal,

7 entonces los dejaré seguir viviendo en este país, en la tierra que di a sus antepasados para siempre.

8 »”¡Pero ustedes confían en palabras engañosas, que no tienen validez alguna!

9 Roban, matan, cometen adulterio, juran en falso, queman incienso a Baal, siguen a otros dioses que jamás conocieron,
