Jeremías 50:19 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 50:19

And I will bring Israel again to his habitation
Or "fold" ^F21, or place of pasturage; for the metaphor of sheep is still continued. Israel designs not the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, and the Levites, and a few of the other tribes mixed with them only, but all Israel, together with Judah, as appears from ( Jeremiah 50:20 ) ; and so this prophecy had not its full accomplishment at the Jews' return from the Babylonish captivity; but respects their future conversion, when all Israel shall be saved, and they will return to their own land. Kimchi says this refers to time yet to come; which he prefers to the other sense he mentions, of the return of the captivity of Babylon; and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be
satisfied upon Mount Ephraim and Gilead;
which, as they were all fruitful places, and had good pasturage, so they belonged to the ten tribes; which shows that it respects the return of them and the fulness of blessings, both temporal and spiritual, they shall then enjoy.

Jeremías 50:19 In-Context

17 »Israel es como un rebaño descarriado,acosado por los leones.Primero lo devoró el rey de Asiria,y luego Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia,le quebró todos los huesos».

18 Por eso, así dice el SEÑORTodopoderoso, el Dios de Israel:«Castigaré al rey de Babilonia y a su paíscomo castigué al rey de Asiria.

19 Haré que Israel vuelva a su pradoy que se alimente en el Carmelo y en Basán.Su apetito quedará saciadoen las montañas de Efraín y Galaad.

20 En aquellos días se buscará la iniquidad de Israel,pero ya no se encontrará.En aquel tiempo se buscarán los pecados de Judá,pero ya no se hallarán,porque yo perdonaré a los que deje con vida—afirma el SEÑOR—.

21 »¡Ataca el país de Meratayiny a los que viven en Pecod!¡Mátalos, destrúyelos por completo!¡Cumple con todas mis órdenes!—afirma el SEÑOR—.
