Jeremías 7:9 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 7:9

Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely,
&c.] At the same time they offered sacrifices, and trusted in them, they did those things, which would not be grateful to the Lord, nor profitable to them; or, "ye do steal"; so the Septuagint, and all the Oriental versions; and likewise the Targum; as charging them with them; these are sins against the second table of the law, as what follow are against the first: and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not;
for they not only burnt incense to Baal, which was an act of idolatrous worship; but served other strange gods they had not known before; whose names they had never heard of, and of whose help and assistance they now had no experience, nor received any benefit from, as they had on the one and only true God; and therefore it was great folly and ingratitude in them to forsake the Lord, and walk after these.

Jeremías 7:9 In-Context

7 entonces os haré morar en este lugar, en la tierra que di a vuestros padres para siempre.
8 He aquí, vosotros confiáis en palabras engañosas que no aprovechan,
9 para robar, matar, cometer adulterio, jurar falsamente, ofrecer sacrificios a Baal y andar en pos de otros dioses que no habíais conocido.
10 ¿Vendréis luego y os pondréis delante de mí en esta casa, que es llamada por mi nombre, y diréis: "Ya estamos salvos"; para luego seguir haciendo todas estas abominaciones?
11 ¿Se ha convertido esta casa, que es llamada por mi nombre, en cueva de ladrones delante de vuestros ojos? He aquí, yo mismo lo he vistodeclara el SEÑOR.
