Geremia 43:7 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 43:7

So they came into the land of Egypt
They set out from the habitation of Chimham, where they were, ( Jeremiah 41:17 ) ; and proceeded on their journey, till they entered the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the Lord;
to continue in Judea, and not to go into Egypt; and though the prophet of the Lord, who was with them, might, as they went along, advise them to go back, they regarded him not, but still went on: thus came they [even] to Tahpanhes;
the same with Hanes, ( Isaiah 30:4 ) ; and might be so called, as here, from a queen of Egypt of this name, ( 1 Kings 11:19 1 Kings 11:20 ) . The Septuagint version, and others after that, call it Taphnas. It is thought to be the Daphnae Pelusiae of Herodotus F6 It was a seat of the king of Egypt, as appeals from ( Jeremiah 43:9 ) ; and no less a place would these proud men stop at, or take up with, but where the king's palace was. Tyrius F7 calls it Tapium, and says it was in his time a very small town.

Geremia 43:7 In-Context

5 E Giohanan, figliuolo di Carea, e tutti i capi della gente di guerra, presero tutto il rimanente di Giuda, e quelli che se n’erano tornati da tutte le nazioni, dove erano stati dispersi, per dimorar nel paese di Giuda:
6 gli uomini, le donne, i fanciulli, e le figliuole del re, e tutte le persone, che Nebuzaradan, capitano delle guardie, aveva lasciate con Ghedalia, figliuolo di Ahicam, figliuolo di Safan, ed anche il profeta Geremia, e Baruc, figliuolo di Neria;
7 e se ne vennero nel paese di Egitto; perciocchè non ubbidirono alla voce del Signore; ed arrivarano fino a Tafnes.
8 E LA parola del Signore fu indirizzata a Geremia in Tafnes, dicendo:
9 Prendi in man tua delle pietre grosse, e nascondile nella malta, nella fornace da mattoni, ch’è all’entrata della casa di Faraone in Tafnes, alla vista d’alcuni uomini Giudei.
