"Clama a mí, y yo te responderé y te revelaré cosas grandes e inaccesibles, que tú no conoces."
Jeremías 33:3 Meaning and Commentary
Jeremiah 33:3
or, "fortified ones" F16; which are like fortified cities, that cannot easily be come at, unless the gates are opened to enter into; and designs such as are difficult of understanding, which exceed human belief, and which reason cannot comprehend and take in; and such are the great things of the Gospel. Some copies read it, "things reserved" F17; as the Targum; and so Jarchi, who interprets it of things future, of things reserved in the heart of God, and which he purposed to do; and very rightly: which thou knowest not;
until revealed; and from hence it appears, that by these great and hidden things are not meant the destruction of Jerusalem, and the seventy years' captivity, and return from that, things which Jeremiah had been made acquainted with time after time, and had prophesied of them; but spiritual blessings hereafter mentioned, some of which the deliverance from Babylon were typical of Ben Melech interprets these of comforts great and strong.

Call unto me, and I will answer thee
This is spoken not to Jerusalem, and the inhabitants of it; but to the prophet, encouraging him to seek the Lord by prayer, promising an answer to him. So the Targum,
``pray before me, and I will receive thy prayer:''and show thee great and mighty things;

1
Vino la palabra del SEÑOR a Jeremías por segunda vez, mientras él estaba aún detenido en el patio de la guardia, diciendo:
2
Así dice el SEÑOR que hizo la tierra, el SEÑOR que la formó para establecerla; el SEÑOR es su nombre:
3
"Clama a mí, y yo te responderé y te revelaré cosas grandes e inaccesibles, que tú no conoces."
4
Porque así dice el SEÑOR, Dios de Israel, acerca de las casas de esta ciudad y acerca de las casas de los reyes de Judá que han sido derribadas para hacer defensas contra los terraplenes de asalto y contra la espada:
5
"Mientras ellos vienen a pelear contra los caldeos y a llenarlas con los cadáveres de los hombres que herí en mi ira y en mi furor, pues yo había escondido mi rostro de esta ciudad a causa de toda su maldad,
