Jeremías 8:2

2 Esparcirá los huesos sobre la tierra ante el sol, la luna y las estrellas: los dioses que mi pueblo ha amado, servido y rendido culto. Sus huesos no serán recogidos nuevamente ni enterrados, sino que serán esparcidos sobre la tierra como si fueran estiércol.

Jeremías 8:2 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 8:2

And they shall spread them before the sun and the moon, and all
the host of heaven
The stars. This shows, not only that they should be publicly exposed; but, as it refers to their idolatrous worship of the sun, moon, and stars, that these deities will not be able to help them; as they could not prevent their dead bodies being dug up, so neither could they order or cause them to be gathered together, and buried again: whom they have loved;
whereas they ought to have loved the Lord their God, and him only: it means an idolatrous love of and affection for them; and not the love of them, as creatures for use and delight; otherwise the light of the sun, moon, and stars, is sweet, and their influence great; and a pleasant thing it is to behold them, and especially the former of them, the fountain of light and heat: and whom they have served; more and besides the Creator of them, whom they should have served, the Lord of hosts, and him only: and after whom they have walked;
not in a natural and literal sense, but in a religious one, as is after explained: and whom they have sought;
for advice and counsel, and by making their prayers and supplications to them: and whom they have worshipped;
by bowing the knee, or kissing the hand; by offering sacrifices, and burning incense, and putting up petitions to them; by trusting in them, and expecting good things from them; see ( 2 Kings 21:3-5 ) ( 23:5 ) ( Jeremiah 7:18 ) ( Ezekiel 8:16 ) : they shall not be gathered, nor be buried:
meaning not the men that should die in those times, but the bones that should be brought out of the graves; these, having been scattered about, should not be collected together again, and replaced in their sepulchres: they shall be for dung upon the face of the earth;
that is, they should lie and rot upon the face of the earth, and crumble into dust, and become dung for it; see ( Psalms 83:10 ) .

Jeremías 8:2 In-Context

1 »En ese día —dice el Señor
—, el enemigo abrirá las tumbas de los reyes y los funcionarios de Judá, las tumbas de los sacerdotes, los profetas y la gente común de Jerusalén.

2 Esparcirá los huesos sobre la tierra ante el sol, la luna y las estrellas: los dioses que mi pueblo ha amado, servido y rendido culto. Sus huesos no serán recogidos nuevamente ni enterrados, sino que serán esparcidos sobre la tierra como si fueran estiércol.

3 Y la gente que sobreviva de esta nación malvada deseará morir en vez de vivir en el lugar donde los enviaré. ¡Yo, el Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales, he hablado!

4 Engaño de los falsos profetas
»Jeremías, dile al pueblo: “Esto dice el Señor
:
»‘Cuando una persona se cae, ¿acaso no vuelve a levantarse?
Cuando descubre que está en un camino equivocado, ¿acaso no da la vuelta?

5 Entonces, ¿por qué esta gente continúa en su camino de autodestrucción?
¿Por qué los habitantes de Jerusalén rehúsan regresar?
Se aferran a sus mentiras
y se niegan a volver.
