Jeremias 8:2

2 Serão expostos ao sol e à lua e a todos os astros do céu, que eles amaram, aos quais prestaram culto e os quais seguiram, consultaram e adoraram. Não serão ajuntados nem enterrados, antes se tornarão esterco sobre o solo.

Jeremias 8:2 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 8:2

And they shall spread them before the sun and the moon, and all
the host of heaven
The stars. This shows, not only that they should be publicly exposed; but, as it refers to their idolatrous worship of the sun, moon, and stars, that these deities will not be able to help them; as they could not prevent their dead bodies being dug up, so neither could they order or cause them to be gathered together, and buried again: whom they have loved;
whereas they ought to have loved the Lord their God, and him only: it means an idolatrous love of and affection for them; and not the love of them, as creatures for use and delight; otherwise the light of the sun, moon, and stars, is sweet, and their influence great; and a pleasant thing it is to behold them, and especially the former of them, the fountain of light and heat: and whom they have served; more and besides the Creator of them, whom they should have served, the Lord of hosts, and him only: and after whom they have walked;
not in a natural and literal sense, but in a religious one, as is after explained: and whom they have sought;
for advice and counsel, and by making their prayers and supplications to them: and whom they have worshipped;
by bowing the knee, or kissing the hand; by offering sacrifices, and burning incense, and putting up petitions to them; by trusting in them, and expecting good things from them; see ( 2 Kings 21:3-5 ) ( 23:5 ) ( Jeremiah 7:18 ) ( Ezekiel 8:16 ) : they shall not be gathered, nor be buried:
meaning not the men that should die in those times, but the bones that should be brought out of the graves; these, having been scattered about, should not be collected together again, and replaced in their sepulchres: they shall be for dung upon the face of the earth;
that is, they should lie and rot upon the face of the earth, and crumble into dust, and become dung for it; see ( Psalms 83:10 ) .

Jeremias 8:2 In-Context

1 “Naquele tempo”, declara o SENHOR, “os ossos dos reis e dos líderes de Judá, os ossos dos sacerdotes e dos profetas e os ossos do povo de Jerusalém serão retirados dos seus túmulos.

2 Serão expostos ao sol e à lua e a todos os astros do céu, que eles amaram, aos quais prestaram culto e os quais seguiram, consultaram e adoraram. Não serão ajuntados nem enterrados, antes se tornarão esterco sobre o solo.

3 Todos os sobreviventes dessa nação má preferirão a morte à vida, em todos os lugares para onde eu os expulsar”, diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos.

4 “Diga a eles: Assim diz o SENHOR:“Quando os homens caem, não se levantam mais?Quando alguém se desvia do caminho, não retorna a ele?

5 Por que será, então, que este povo se desviou?Por que Jerusalém persiste em desviar-se?Eles apegam-se ao enganoe recusam-se a voltar.
