Yirmeyah 30:8

Yirmeyah 30:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 30:8

For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of
hosts
When the time is come for Jacob to be saved out of his trouble: [that] I will break his yoke from off thy neck;
not the yoke of the king of Babylon, but of antichrist, and of all the antichristian states, by whom the people of God have been oppressed; so the Targum,

``I will break the yoke of the peoples (the antichristian nations) from off your necks.''

Jarchi interprets it of the yoke of the nations of the world from off Israel; and Kimchi of the yoke of Gog and Magog, or of every nation: and will burst thy bonds;
by which they were kept in bondage, both with respect to civil and religious things; but now he that led into captivity shall go into captivity himself, ( Revelation 13:10 ) ; and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him;
this shows that this prophecy cannot be understood of deliverance from the Babylonish captivity; because, after this, strangers did serve themselves of the Jews, and they were servants unto them; as to the Persians, and Grecians, and especially the Romans, by whom they were entirely subdued and ruined; and to this day all nations almost serve themselves of them; but when they shall be called and converted, as they shall be free from the yoke of sin and Satan, and from the yoke of the ceremonial law, and the traditions of their elders, in a religious sense; so from the yoke of the nations of the world, in a civil sense.

Yirmeyah 30:8 In-Context

6 Ask ye now, and see whether a zachar (male) doth travail with child? Why do I see every gever with his hands on his stomach, like a woman in labor, and all faces are turned deadly pale?

7 Alas! For gadol hayom, so that none is like it; it is even the Et (Time) of Tzarah l’Ya’akov (Jacob’s Trouble), but he shall be saved out of it.

8 For it shall come to pass in that day, saith Hashem Tzva’os, that I will break his yoke from off thy tzavar (neck), and will burst thy bonds, and zarim (foreigners) shall no more make a slave of him;

9 But they shall serve Hashem Eloheihem, and Dovid their Melech [i.e. Moshiach], whom I will raise up for them.

10 Therefore, fear thou not, O Avdi Ya’akov, saith Hashem; neither be dismayed, O Yisroel; for, hineni, I will save thee from afar, and thy zera from the eretz of their captivity; and Ya’akov shall return, and shall be at rest, and be secure, and none shall make him afraid.
