Geremia 6:28 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 6:28

They are all grievous revolters
From the right way of God and his worship: or, they are all revolters of revolters
F5; of all, the greatest revolters, the greatest sinners and transgressors, the most stubborn and disobedient; or sons of revolters; fathers and children are alike. The Targum, is,

``all their princes rebel;''
and so the Vulgate Latin and Syriac versions: "walking with slanders": of one another; or with deceit, as the Targum; in a hypocritical and fraudulent manner; playing the hypocrite with God, or tricking and deceiving their neighbours. They are "brass and iron"; as vile and mean as those metals, and not as gold and silver; or as hard and inflexible as they are; or they deal as insincerely
``as he that mixes brass with iron;''
so the Targum: they are all corrupters;
as such that mix metals are; they are corrupters of themselves and of others, of the doctrines and manners of men, and of the ways and worship of God.

Geremia 6:28 In-Context

26 Figliuola del mio popolo, cingiti d’un sacco, e voltolati nella cenere; fa’ cordoglio, come per un figliuolo unico, ed un lamento amarissimo; perciocchè il guastatore verrà di subito sopra noi.
27 Io ti ho posto per riparo, e fortezza, nel mio popolo; e tu conoscerai, e proverai la lor via.
28 Essi tutti son ribelli ritrosissimi, vanno sparlando; son rame e ferro; tutti son corrotti.
29 Il mantice è arso, il piombo è consumato dal fuoco; indarno pur sono stati posti al cimento; i mali però non ne sono stati separati.
30 Saranno chiamati: Argento riprovato; perciocchè il Signore li ha riprovati.
