Geremia 3:23 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 3:23

Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from
the multitude of mountains
From any natural defence, by hills and mountains encompassing; or from idols worshipped on hills and mountains. So the Targum,

``truly in vain we worship upon the hills, and for no profit are we gathered upon the mountains;''
and to this purpose Jarchi and Kimchi interpret it; or from the multitude of the people, the kingdoms of the world, and the nations of the earth, from whom the Jews have in vain expected salvation and deliverance: truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel;
or, "in the Word of the Lord our God", as the Targum; in Christ, the essential Word of God, is the salvation of all the chosen people, both Jews and Gentiles; it was put into his hands by his Father, and it is wrought out by him; and it resides in him, and it is to be had in him, and in him only, ( Acts 4:12 ) , who is God the Lord, and therefore was able to effect it, and to give it; and hence these repenting ones, discarding all other saviours, apply to him for it.

Geremia 3:23 In-Context

21 Una voce è stata udita sopra i luoghi elevati, un pianto di supplicazioni de’ figliuoli d’Israele; perchè hanno pervertita la lor via, ed hanno dimenticato il Signore Iddio loro.
22 Convertitevi, figliuoli ribelli, ed io guarirò le vostre ribellioni. Ecco, noi veniamo a te, perciocchè tu sei il Signore Iddio nostro.
23 Certo, in vano si aspetta la salute dai colli, dalla moltitudine de’ monti; certo, nel Signore Iddio nostro è posta la salute d’Israele.
24 E quella cosa vergognosa ha consumata la sostanza de’ padri nostri, fin dalla nostra fanciullezza; le lor pecore, i lor buoi, i lor figliuoli, e le lor figliuole.
25 Noi giacciamo nella nostra vergogna, e la nostra ignominia ci copre; perciocchè noi, ed i nostri padri, abbiam peccato contro al Signore Iddio nostro, dalla nostra fanciullezza infino a questo giorno; e non abbiamo ascoltata la voce del Signore Iddio nostro.
