Jeremias 13:5

5 Assim, fui e o escondi em Perate, conforme o SENHOR me havia ordenado.

Jeremias 13:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 13:5

So I went and hid it by Euphrates
Or, "in" ^F15 it; in a hole of the rock, upon the banks of it: as the Lord commanded me:
all this seems to be done not really, but visionally; it can hardly be thought that Jeremy should be sent on two such long journeys, on such an account, which would take up a considerable time to perform it in; but rather that he went and came in like manner as Ezekiel did, in the visions of God, from Chaldea to Jerusalem, and from thence to Chaldea again, ( Ezekiel 8:3 ) ( 11:24 ) , and so Maimonaides ^F16 was of opinion, as Kimchi on the place observes, that all this was done in a vision of prophecy.

Jeremias 13:5 In-Context

3 O SENHOR me dirigiu a palavra pela segunda vez, dizendo:

4 “Pegue o cinto que você comprou e está usando, vá agora a Perate e esconda-o ali numa fenda da rocha”.

5 Assim, fui e o escondi em Perate, conforme o SENHOR me havia ordenado.

6 Depois de muitos dias, o SENHOR me disse: “Vá agora a Perate e pegue o cinto que ordenei a você que escondesse ali”.

7 Então fui a Perate, desenterrei o cinto e o tirei do lugar em que o havia escondido. O cinto estava podre e se tornara completamente inútil.
