Yēlìmǐshū 35:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 35:8

Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab our
father
The above was the charge he gave them; and this, in every article of it, they had carefully and constantly kept, though it had been for the space of three hundred years, or thereabout; as follows: in all he hath charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our
wives, our sons, nor our daughters;
which was the first of the precepts he gave them: and which they were now tempted to disregard, but were resolved to observe it, as they had hitherto done. The rest of the articles follow.
