Jeremías 6:30 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 6:30

Reprobate silver shall men call them
Or, "call ye them" {i}, as the Targum; so the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, and Arabic versions; by whom are meant the Jews, who thought themselves of some account, as silver; being the seed of Abraham, and having the law, the covenant and promises, and service of God; when those that tried them, as the prophets, found them to be nothing but dross; and therefore, if they must be called silver, they could call them no other than reprobate silver; or what is of no account and value; and which is confirmed by the following reason, which contains the judgment and conduct of him that cannot err: for the Lord hath rejected them;
from being his people; and therefore cast them out of their own land, and caused them to go into captivity.

Jeremías 6:30 In-Context

28 Ellos son rebeldes de la peor clase,
llenos de calumnia.
Son tan duros como el bronce y el hierro
y llevan a otros a la corrupción.

29 Los fuelles soplan las llamas con furor
para quemar la corrupción.
Pero no los purifica,
ya que su perversidad permanece.

30 Los marcaré: “plata rechazada”,
porque yo, el Señor
, los desecho».
