Geremia 32:23

Listen to Geremia 32:23
23 Ed essi v’entrarono e ne presero possesso, ma non hanno ubbidito alla tua voce e non han camminato secondo la tua legge; tutto quello che avevi loro comandato di fare essi non l’hanno fatto; perciò tu hai fatto venir su di essi tutti questi mali.

Geremia 32:23 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:23

And they came in and possessed it
After forty years travel in the wilderness; they entered into it with Joshua at the head of them, and the Lord with them; giving victory over the Canaanites, who were soon subdued; and the Israelites with little trouble settled in their land, which was divided to them by lot, and possessed as their inheritance: but they obeyed not thy voice;
though they promised at Sinai they would, and though they were so much obliged by the goodness of God to them; this shows great ingratitude in them: neither walked in thy law;
moral, ceremonial, and judicial, given at Harsh as the rule of their obedience; but they walked not according to it: they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do;
they were not only deficient in some things, but in everything; they not only broke some of the laws of God, but all of them; there was not one law, one command, observed by them as it ought to have been; and yet these people were always prone to establish their own righteousness, and seek for justification by it: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them;
the Chaldean army, now besieging them; and the famine and pestilence among them; which, the prophet serves, were but the righteous judgments of God upon them for their sins.

Geremia 32:23 In-Context

21 tu traesti il tuo popolo fuori dal paese d’Egitto con miracoli e prodigi, con mano potente e braccio steso, con gran terrore;
22 e desti loro questo paese che avevi giurato ai loro padri di dar loro: un paese dove scorre il latte e il miele.
23 Ed essi v’entrarono e ne presero possesso, ma non hanno ubbidito alla tua voce e non han camminato secondo la tua legge; tutto quello che avevi loro comandato di fare essi non l’hanno fatto; perciò tu hai fatto venir su di essi tutti questi mali.
24 Ecco, le opere d’assedio giungono fino alla città per prenderla; e la città, vinta dalla spada, dalla fame e dalla peste, è data in man de’ Caldei che combattono contro di lei. Quello che tu hai detto è avvenuto, ed ecco, tu lo vedi.
25 Eppure, o Signore, o Eterno, tu m’hai detto: Còmprati con danaro il campo, e chiama de’ testimoni… e la città è data in man de’ Caldei".
