Jeremías 26:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 26:8

Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of
speaking
For they let him alone till he had done, either out of reverence of him as a priest and prophet; or they were awed by a secret influence on their minds that they might not disturb him: all that the Lord had commanded [him] to speak unto all the people;
he did as he was ordered, kept back nothing, not fearing the resentment of the people, but fearing God: that the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, took him;
the priests and the prophets were the leading men in this action; they stirred up the people against him, and through their instigation he was seized and laid hold on: saying, thou shall surely die;
signifying that they would bring a charge against him, which they were able to support, and which by the law would be death; unless they meant in the manner of zealots to put him to death themselves, without judge or jury; and which they would have put in execution, had not the princes of the land, or the great sanhedrim, heard of it; and therefore to prevent it came to the temple, as is afterwards related.

Jeremías 26:8 In-Context

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.
10 Cuando los jefes de Judá escucharon estas cosas, fueron del palacio del rey a la casa del SEÑOR, y se apostaron a la entrada de la Puerta Nueva del templo.
