Geremia 32:8

8 E Hanameel, figliuolo del mio zio, venne da me, secondo la parola dell’Eterno, nel cortile della prigione, e mi disse: Ti prego, compra il mio campo ch’è ad Anatoth, nel territorio di Beniamino; giacché tu hai il diritto di successione e il diritto di riscatto, compratelo!" Allora riconobbi che questa era parola dell’Eterno.

Geremia 32:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:8

So Hanameel mine uncle's son came unto me
Freely and voluntarily, of his own accord; though it was determined he should, as it was predicted he would; for God's decrees do not infringe the liberty of the will: this man came from Anathoth, very probably, to Jerusalem, to the place where the prophet was: in the court of the prison, according to the word of the Lord;
which had been made known before to Jeremiah: and said unto me, buy my field, I pray thee, that [is] in Anathoth,
which [is] in the country of Benjamin;
it belonged to that tribe: for the right of inheritance [is] thine;
the reversion of this field; it would come to him after the death of his cousin, as being next heir: and the redemption [is] thine; buy [it] for thyself;
since, if it was sold to another, he, according to law, was obliged to redeem it; and therefore it was much better to buy it at once for himself: then I knew that this [was] the word of the Lord;
that it was the word of the Lord which came to him before, and that it was the will of the Lord that he should make this purchase; since there was such an exact agreement between the prophecy and the event.

Geremia 32:8 In-Context

6 E Geremia disse: "La parola dell’Eterno m’è stata rivolta in questi termini:

7 Ecco, Hanameel, figliuolo di Shallum, tuo zio, viene da te per dirti: Còmprati il mio campo ch’è ad Anatoth, poiché tu hai diritto di riscatto per comprarlo".

8 E Hanameel, figliuolo del mio zio, venne da me, secondo la parola dell’Eterno, nel cortile della prigione, e mi disse: Ti prego, compra il mio campo ch’è ad Anatoth, nel territorio di Beniamino; giacché tu hai il diritto di successione e il diritto di riscatto, compratelo!" Allora riconobbi che questa era parola dell’Eterno.

9 E io comprai da Hanameel, figliuolo del mio zio, il campo ch’era ad Anatoth, gli pesai il danaro, diciassette sicli d’argento.

10 Scrissi tutto questo in un atto, lo sigillai, chiamai i testimoni, e pesai il danaro nella bilancia.
