Jeremias 7:7 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 7:7

Then will I cause you to dwell in this place
In the land of Judea, and not suffer them to be carried captive, which they had been threatened with, and had reason to expect, should they continue in their sins, in their impenitence and vain confidence: in the land that I gave to your fathers;
to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, by promise; and to the Jewish fathers in the times of Joshua, by putting them in actual possession of it: for ever and ever:
for a great while; a long time, as Kimchi explains it; from the days of Abraham for ever, even all the days of the world, provided they and their children walked in the ways of the Lord. This clause may either be connected with the word "dwell", or with the word give; and the sense is, either that they should dwell in it for ever and ever; or it was given to their fathers for ever and ever.

Jeremias 7:7 In-Context

5 Mas, se deveras emendardes os vossos caminhos e as vossas obras; se deveras executardes a justi莽a entre um homem e o seu proximo;
6 se n茫o oprimirdes o estrangeiro, e o 贸rf茫o, e a vi煤va, nem derramardes sangue inocente neste lugar, nem andardes ap贸s outros deuses para vosso pr贸prio mal,
7 ent茫o eu vos farei habitar neste lugar, na terra que dei a vossos pais desde os tempos antigos e para sempre.
8 Eis que v贸s confiais em palavras falsas, que para nada s茫o proveitosas.
9 Furtareis v贸s, e matareis, e cometereis adult茅rio, e jurareis falsamente, e queimareis incenso a Baal, e andareis ap贸s outros deuses que n茫o conhecestes,
