Jeremías 26:7 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 26:7

So the priests, and the prophets, and all the people
As it was in the temple, in one of the courts of it, that Jeremiah was, and said the above things, it is no wonder to hear of the "priests", since they were there about their work and service; the "prophets" were the false prophets, as the Septuagint and Arabic versions expressly call them; and "all the people" were all the males out of the several cities of Judah, who were come up to the temple on the account of the feast; see ( Jeremiah 26:2 ) ; now these heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the Lord;
in the temple; in the court of Israel; they heard him out, and did not interrupt him while he was speaking; and having heard him, they were angry with him, and were witnesses against him; they did not hear him so as to obey his words, receive his instructions, and follow, his directions; but they heard him with indignation, and were determined to prosecute him unto death.

Jeremías 26:7 In-Context

5 y si no escuchan las palabras de mis siervos los profetas, a quienes una y otra vez he enviado y ustedes han desobedecido,

6 entonces haré con esta casa lo mismo que hice con Siló: ¡Haré de esta ciudad una maldición para todas las naciones de la tierra!’”»

7 Los sacerdotes, los profetas y el pueblo entero oyeron estas palabras que el profeta Jeremías pronunció en la casa del SEÑOR.

8 Pero en cuanto Jeremías terminó de decirle al pueblo todo lo que el SEÑOR le había ordenado, los sacerdotes y los profetas y todo el pueblo lo apresaron y le dijeron: «¡Vas a morir!

9 ¿Por qué has profetizado en el nombre del SEÑOR que esta casa se quedará como Siló, y que esta ciudad quedará desolada y deshabitada?» Y todo el pueblo que estaba en la casa del SEÑOR se abalanzó sobre Jeremías.
