Jeremiah 33:25 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 33:25

Thus saith the Lord
In answer to the above calumny: if my covenant [be] not with day and night;
that is, if it should not stand; if it should be broken; or there should be no longer a succession of day and night: [and if] I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
concerning the course of the sun, moon, and stars, and the influence of the heavenly bodies; and concerning the fruits of the earth, the seasons of the year, seedtime and harvest, summer and winter; if these are not settled and fixed, and do not appear according to appointment and promise.

Jeremiah 33:25 In-Context

23 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

24 "Have you not observed what these people are saying, 'The LORD has rejected the two families which he chose'? Thus they have despised my people so that they are no longer a nation in their sight.

25 Thus says the LORD: If I have not established my covenant with day and night and the ordinances of heaven and earth,

26 then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his descendants to rule over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes, and will have mercy upon them."
