Jeremías 3:23 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 3:23

Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from
the multitude of mountains
From any natural defence, by hills and mountains encompassing; or from idols worshipped on hills and mountains. So the Targum,

``truly in vain we worship upon the hills, and for no profit are we gathered upon the mountains;''
and to this purpose Jarchi and Kimchi interpret it; or from the multitude of the people, the kingdoms of the world, and the nations of the earth, from whom the Jews have in vain expected salvation and deliverance: truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel;
or, "in the Word of the Lord our God", as the Targum; in Christ, the essential Word of God, is the salvation of all the chosen people, both Jews and Gentiles; it was put into his hands by his Father, and it is wrought out by him; and it resides in him, and it is to be had in him, and in him only, ( Acts 4:12 ) , who is God the Lord, and therefore was able to effect it, and to give it; and hence these repenting ones, discarding all other saviours, apply to him for it.

Jeremías 3:23 In-Context

21 Se oye una voz sobre las alturas desoladas, el llanto de las súplicas de los hijos de Israel; porque han pervertido su camino, han olvidado al SEÑOR su Dios.
22 Volved, hijos infieles, yo sanaré vuestra infidelidad. Aquí estamos, venimos a ti, porque tú, el SEÑOR, eres nuestro Dios.
23 Ciertamente engaño son las colinas, y el tumulto sobre los montes; ciertamente, en el SEÑOR nuestro Dios está la salvación de Israel.
24 Pero lo vergonzoso consumió el trabajo de nuestros padres desde nuestra juventud: sus ovejas y sus vacas, sus hijos y sus hijas.
25 Acostémonos en nuestra verguenza, y que nos cubra nuestra humillación; porque hemos pecado contra el SEÑOR nuestro Dios, nosotros y nuestros padres desde nuestra juventud hasta hoy, y no hemos obedecido la voz del SEÑOR nuestro Dios.
