Jeremías 7:28 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 7:28

But thou shalt say unto them
Having found by experience, after long speaking and calling to them, that they are a disobedient and incorrigible people: this is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God;
who, though the Lord is their God, and has chosen and avouched them to be his special people, whom he has distinguished by special favours; yet what he says by his prophets they pay no regard unto, and are no better than the Gentiles, which know not God: nor receiveth correction;
or "instruction" F25; so as to be reclaimed, and made the better; neither by the word, nor by the rod; neither had any effect upon them: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth;
neither faith nor faithfulness is in them; nothing but lying, hypocrisy, and insincerity.

Jeremías 7:28 In-Context

26 Pero no me escucharon ni inclinaron su o铆do, sino que endurecieron su cerviz e hicieron peor que sus padres.
27 Les dir谩s, pues, todas estas palabras, mas no te escuchar谩n; los llamar谩s, y no te responder谩n.
28 Entonces les dir谩s: "Esta es la naci贸n que no escuch贸 la voz del SE脩OR su Dios, ni acept贸 correcci贸n; ha perecido la verdad, ha sido cortada de su boca.
29 "C贸rtate el cabello y t铆ralo, y entona una endecha en las alturas desoladas; porque el SE脩OR ha desechado y abandonado a la generaci贸n objeto de su furor."
30 Porque los hijos de Jud谩 han hecho lo que es malo ante mis ojosdeclara el SE脩OR, han puesto sus abominaciones en la casa que es llamada por mi nombre, profan谩ndola.
