Jeremias 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.

Jeremias 26:7 In-Context

5 e se não ouvirem as palavras dos meus servos, os profetas, os quais tenho enviado a vocês vez após vez, embora vocês não os tenham ouvido,

6 então farei deste templo o que fiz do santuário de Siló, e desta cidade, um objeto de maldição entre todas as nações da terra”.

7 Os sacerdotes, os profetas e todo o povo ouviram Jeremias falar essas palavras no templo do SENHOR.

8 E assim que Jeremias acabou de dizer ao povo tudo o que o SENHOR lhe tinha ordenado, os sacerdotes, os profetas e todo o povo o prenderam e disseram: “Você certamente morrerá!

9 Por que você profetiza em nome do SENHOR e afirma que este templo será como Siló e que esta cidade ficará arrasada e abandonada?” E todo o povo se ajuntou em volta de Jeremias no templo do SENHOR.
