Jeremías 27:10 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 27:10

For they prophesy a lie unto you
That which was vain and false, and proved so; though they might not know it was when delivered: to remove you far from your land;
not that they designed it by their prophecies, but so it was eventually; for, standing it out against Nebuchadnezzar, encouraged by the lies and dreams of their prophets, he, in process of time, took them, and carried them captive into Babylon; whereas, had they surrendered at once, they might have continued in their own land, paying a tax or tribute to the king of Babylon: and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish;
drive them out of their own land, and so perish in a foreign land: God is said to do that which his servant or instrument did, being provoked by the sin and disobedience of the people, hearkening to their lying prophets, and not to him.

Jeremías 27:10 In-Context

8 Así que ustedes deben someterse al rey de Babilonia y servirle; ¡pongan su cuello bajo el yugo de Babilonia! Castigaré a toda nación que rehúse ser su esclava, dice el Señor
. Enviaré guerra, hambre y enfermedad sobre esa nación hasta que Babilonia la conquiste.

9 »’No les hagan caso a sus falsos profetas, adivinos, intérpretes de sueños, los médiums y hechiceros que dicen: “El rey de Babilonia no los conquistará”.

10 Todos son mentirosos y sus mentiras solo servirán para que ustedes sean expulsados de su propia tierra. Yo los expulsaré y los enviaré a morir lejos;

11 pero al pueblo de toda nación que se someta al rey de Babilonia se le permitirá permanecer en su propio país para cultivar la tierra como siempre. ¡Yo, el Señor
, he hablado!’”».

12 Después repetí el mismo mensaje al rey Sedequías de Judá: «Si deseas vivir, sométete al yugo del rey de Babilonia y a su pueblo.
