13 y me buscaréis y me hallaréis, porque me buscaréis de todo vuestro corazón

Jeremías 29:13 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 29:13

And ye shall seek me, and find [me]
When persons seek the Lord aright, they always find him; a God hearing prayer; a God in Christ; bestowing favours upon them; granting them his presence; indulging them in communion with him; and favouring them with fresh supplies of his grace, and everything needful for them; every mercy, temporal and spiritual; that is, when they seek him in Christ, who is the only way to the Father, under the guidance and influence of the blessed Spirit; in the exercise of faith upon him and his promises; with fervency of spirit and ardour of mind; with diligence and importunity; with earnest desires and strong affections; and, as follows, with all sincerity of soul: when ye shall search for me with all your heart;
which, as Calvin rightly observes, does not design perfection, but integrity and sincerity; when they draw nigh with a true heart, and call upon him in truth, and search for him with eagerness, with a hearty desire to find him, as men search for gold, and silver, and hid treasure.

Jeremías 29:13 In-Context

11 Porque yo sé los pensamientos que tengo acerca de vosotros, dijo el SEÑOR, pensamientos de paz, y no de mal, para daros el fin que esperáis

12 Entonces me invocaréis, y andaréis en mis caminos y oraréis a mí, y yo os oiré

13 y me buscaréis y me hallaréis, porque me buscaréis de todo vuestro corazón

14 Y seré hallado de vosotros, dijo el SEÑOR, y tornaré vuestra cautividad, y os juntaré de todos los gentiles, y de todos los lugares adonde os arrojé, dijo el SEÑOR; y os haré volver al lugar de donde os hice ser llevados

15 Mas dijisteis: El SEÑOR nos despertó profetas en Babilonia
