Jeremías 43:7 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 43:7

So they came into the land of Egypt
They set out from the habitation of Chimham, where they were, ( Jeremiah 41:17 ) ; and proceeded on their journey, till they entered the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the Lord;
to continue in Judea, and not to go into Egypt; and though the prophet of the Lord, who was with them, might, as they went along, advise them to go back, they regarded him not, but still went on: thus came they [even] to Tahpanhes;
the same with Hanes, ( Isaiah 30:4 ) ; and might be so called, as here, from a queen of Egypt of this name, ( 1 Kings 11:19 1 Kings 11:20 ) . The Septuagint version, and others after that, call it Taphnas. It is thought to be the Daphnae Pelusiae of Herodotus F6 It was a seat of the king of Egypt, as appeals from ( Jeremiah 43:9 ) ; and no less a place would these proud men stop at, or take up with, but where the king's palace was. Tyrius F7 calls it Tapium, and says it was in his time a very small town.

Jeremías 43:7 In-Context

5 Por el contrario, Johanán hijo de Carea y todos los jefes militares se llevaron a la gente que aún quedaba en Judá, es decir, a los que habían vuelto para vivir en Judá luego de haber sido dispersados por todas las naciones:
6 los hombres, las mujeres y los niños, las hijas del rey, y toda la gente que Nabuzaradán, comandante de la guardia, había confiado a Guedalías hijo de Ajicán, nieto de Safán, y también a Jeremías el profeta y a Baruc hijo de Nerías;
7 y contrariando el mandato del SEÑOR se dirigieron al país de Egipto, llegando hasta la ciudad de Tafnes.
8 En Tafnes, la palabra del SEÑOR vino a Jeremías:
9 «Toma en tus manos unas piedras grandes y, a la vista de los judíos, entiérralas con argamasa en el pavimento, frente a la entrada del palacio del faraón en Tafnes.
