Geremia 26:3 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 26:3

If so be they will hearken
And obey; which is expressive not of ignorance and conjecture in God, but of his patience and long suffering, granting space and time for repentance, and the means of it; which disregarded, leave without excuse: and turn every man from his evil way;
his series and course of life, which was evil, and was the case of everyone; so that as their sin was general, the reformation ought to be so too: that I may repent me of the evil which I purpose to do unto them;
or "am thinking", or "devising F4 to do unto them"; which repentance must be understood not of a change of mind, but of the course of his providence towards them, which, by his threatenings, and some steps taken, portended ruin and destruction; yet, in case of repentance and reformation, he would change his method of action agreeably to his will: because of the evil of their doings;
this was the reason why he had threatened them with the evil of punishment, because of the evil of their actions; which were breaches of his law, and such as provoked the eyes of his glory.

Geremia 26:3 In-Context

1 Nel principio del regno di Joiakim figliuolo di Giosia, re di Giuda, fu pronunziata questa parola da parte dell’Eterno:
2 Così parla l’Eterno: "Presentati nel cortile della casa dell’Eterno, e di’ a tutte le città di Giuda che vengono a prostrarsi nella casa dell’Eterno tutte le parole che io ti comando di dir loro; non ne detrarre verbo.
3 Forse daranno ascolto, e si convertiranno ciascuno dalla sua via malvagia; e io mi pentirò del male che penso di far loro per la malvagità delle loro azioni.
4 Tu dirai loro: Così parla l’Eterno: Se non date ascolto, se non camminate secondo la mia legge che vi ho posta dinanzi,
5 se non date ascolto alle parole de’ miei servitori, i profeti, i quali vi mando, che vi ho mandati fin dal mattino e non li avete ascoltati,
