Jeremias 32:5

5 e ele levará para Babilônia a Zedequias, que ali estará até que eu o visite, diz o Senhor, e, ainda que pelejeis contra os caldeus, não ganhareis?

Jeremias 32:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:5

And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon
As he did in chains, from Riblah, where he was brought unto him after he was taken, endeavouring to make his escape, ( Jeremiah 52:8 Jeremiah 52:9 Jeremiah 52:11 ) ; and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the Lord;
in taking him away by death; for he continued in Babylon to the time of his death, which was not violent, but natural; and, considering his circumstances, his captivity, imprisonment, and loss of sight, might be reckoned a visitation in mercy: though some understand this of God's visiting the people at the return of them from their seventy years' captivity; if Zedekiah lived till then, he must be a very old man; but of this we have no account, nor is it probable: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper;
though they should sally out upon them, in order to beat them out of their trenches, and drive them from the walls of the city, yet without success.

Jeremias 32:5 In-Context

3 pois Zedequias, rei de Judá, o havia encarcerado, dizendo: Por que profetizas , dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que entrego esta cidade na mão do rei de Babilônia, e ele a tomará;

4 e Zedequias, rei de Judá, não escapará das mãos dos caldeus, mas certamente será entregue na mão do rei de Babilônia, e com ele falará boca a boca, e os seus olhos verão os olhos dele;

5 e ele levará para Babilônia a Zedequias, que ali estará até que eu o visite, diz o Senhor, e, ainda que pelejeis contra os caldeus, não ganhareis?

6 Disse pois Jeremias: Veio a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:

7 Eis que Hanamel, filho de Salum, teu tio, virá a ti, dizendo: Compra o meu campo que está em Anatote, pois tens o direito de resgate; a ti compete comprá-lo.
