Jeremias 33:2

2 Assim diz o Senhor que faz isto, o Senhor que forma isto, para o estabelecer; o Senhor é o seu nome.

Jeremias 33:2 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 33:2

Thus saith the Lord, the Maker thereof
The Syriac version is, "that made thee"; the prophet. The Septuagint and Arabic versions are, "the Maker of the earth"; see ( Jeremiah 32:17 ) . Kimchi interprets it of Jerusalem; rather it is to be understood of the New Jerusalem, or church of God in Gospel times. Jarchi seems to understand it of this prophecy or promise, and so others; the promise of restoring and rebuilding Jerusalem; which, if taken of the church of God, may be admitted; the Lord that formed it, to establish it;
who drew the scheme and model of this spiritual building, his church, in his eternal mind, and resolved upon its stability and glory; who forms it, and everyone in it, for himself, and for his praise, in order to establish it in the world; as it will be more especially in the latter day: we often read of the Lord's establishing his church and people in the world, ( Psalms 48:8 ) ( 87:5 ) ( Isaiah 2:2 ) ; the Lord [is] his name;
Jehovah, the self-existing Being, the Being of beings; who is able to perform whatever he undertakes, and so is equal to this work, of settling and establishing his interest.

Jeremias 33:2 In-Context

1 E veio a palavra do Senhor a Jeremias, segunda vez, estando ele ainda encarcerado no pátio da guarda, dizendo:

2 Assim diz o Senhor que faz isto, o Senhor que forma isto, para o estabelecer; o Senhor é o seu nome.

3 Clama a mim, e responder-te-ei, e anunciar-te-ei coisas grandes e ocultas, que não sabes.

4 Pois assim diz o Senhor, o Deus de Israel, acerca das casas desta cidade, e acerca das casas dos reis de Judá, que foram demolidas para fazer delas uma defesa contra os valados e contra a espada;

5 entrementes os caldeus estão entrando a pelejar para os encher de cadáveres de homens que ferirei na minha ira e no meu furor; porquanto escondi o meu rosto desta cidade, por causa de toda a sua maldade.
