20 Tú realizaste señales y portentos en la tierra de Egipto hasta este día, y en Israel y entre los hombres, y te has hecho un nombre, como se ve hoy.

Jeremías 32:20 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:20

Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, [even]
unto this day
The prophet here descends to particular instances of the power, wisdom, and goodness of God; and begins with the miracles wrought in Egypt, the plagues inflicted on the Egyptians for refusing to let Israel go; these were set among them, they were true and real things, and obvious to everyone's view; there was no deception in them, they were plain to the senses of men; and the remembrance of them continued among the Egyptians to the times of the prophet; the tradition of what was done was handed down among them to that age: for that any marks of these things remained is not to be supposed; the tracks of Pharaoh's chariot wheels to be still seen in the Red sea must be rejected as fabulous, though Orosius relates it: and in Israel, and amongst [other] men:
that is, signs and wonders were set among the Israelites, or wrought for them; such as bringing them out of Egypt; leading them through the Red sea as on dry land; feeding them in the wilderness with manna and quails; subduing their enemies, and settling them in the land of Canaan; and in other nations very wonderful things have been done in one age or another: or else the meaning is, that the miracles done in Egypt were not only remembered there to this time, but also by the Israelites, and by other men, to whom the knowledge of these things came; on account of which God was more or less everywhere glorified, as follows: and hast made thee a name as at this day;
that is, got praise, honour, and glory, in Egypt, in Israel, and in other nations.

Jeremías 32:20 In-Context

18 que muestras misericordia a millares, pero que castigas la iniquidad de los padres en sus hijos después de ellos, oh grande y poderoso Dios, el SEÑOR de los ejércitos es su nombre;
19 grande en consejo y poderoso en obras, cuyos ojos están abiertos sobre todos los caminos de los hijos de los hombres, para dar a cada uno conforme a sus caminos y conforme al fruto de sus obras.
20 Tú realizaste señales y portentos en la tierra de Egipto hasta este día, y en Israel y entre los hombres, y te has hecho un nombre, como se ve hoy.
21 "Y sacaste a tu pueblo Israel de la tierra de Egipto con señales y portentos, con mano fuerte y con brazo extendido y con gran terror,
22 y les diste esta tierra, que habías jurado dar a sus padres, tierra que mana leche y miel.
