Jeremiah 32:15 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:15

For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel
Who is the Lord God Almighty, and can do what he pleases; and is the covenant God of his people, and therefore will do them good by all his providences in the issue of things: houses, and fields, and vineyards, shall be possessed in this land;
or "bought" ^F25 in it; of which the prophet's buying this field was a pledge and earnest; signifying, that though the city now besieged should be taken, and the people carried captive, yet they should return to their own land, and purchase and enjoy houses, fields, and vineyards again, as at the present time.

Jeremiah 32:15 In-Context

13 I charged Baruch before all of them:

14 "The LORD of heavenly forces, the God of Israel, proclaims: Take these documents—this sealed deed of purchase along with the unsealed one—and put them into a clay container so they will last a long time.

15 The LORD of heavenly forces, the God of Israel, proclaims: Houses, fields, and vineyards will again be bought in this land."

16 After I had given the documents to Baruch, Neriah's son, I prayed to the LORD:

17 LORD God, you created heaven and earth by your great power and outstretched arm; nothing is too hard for you!
