Jeremías 8:4 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 8:4

Moreover, thou shalt say unto them
The Jews, in Jeremiah's time, in order to leave them inexcusable, though the Lord had before assured that they would not hearken to him, ( Jeremiah 7:27 ) : thus saith the Lord, shall they fall, and not rise?
men, when they fall, endeavour to get up again, and generally they do: shall he turn away, and not return?
when a man turns out of the right way into a wrong one, as soon as he is sensible of his mistake, he returns back; this is usually done among men. This is generally the case in a natural sense, and might be expected in a moral sense; that whereas these people had fallen into sin, they would rise again by repentance; and, having turned from the good ways of God, would soon return again to them.

Jeremías 8:4 In-Context

2 Quedarán expuestos al sol y a la luna, y a todas las estrellas del cielo, cuerpos celestes a los que ellos amaron, sirvieron, consultaron y adoraron. No se les recogerá ni se les enterrará; ¡como estiércol quedarán sobre la faz de la tierra!
3 En todos los lugares por donde yo disperse a los sobrevivientes de esta nación malvada, los que hayan quedado preferirán la muerte a la vida. Lo afirma el SEÑORTodopoderoso”.
4 »Pero tú les advertirás que así dice el SEÑOR:»“Cuando los hombres caen,¿acaso no se levantan?Cuando uno se desvía,¿acaso no vuelve al camino?
5 ¿Por qué entonces este pueblo se ha desviado?¿Por qué persiste Jerusalén en su apostasía?Se aferran al engaño,y no quieren volver a mí.
6 He escuchado con suma atención,para ver si alguien habla con rectitud,pero nadie se arrepiente de su maldad;nadie reconoce el mal que ha hecho.Todos siguen su loca carrera,como caballos desbocados en combate.
