Jeremiah 32:32 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:32

Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the
children of Judah
His anger and fury were because of their sins, and so his carrying them captive: which they have done to provoke me to anger;
which was done, as if they had done it on purpose to provoke him; and which was done, not by a few, but by them all; not by the lower people only, but by men of every rank and order; as follows: they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets;
that is, their false prophets, as the Targum; yea, all the inhabitants of the land, both in city and country: and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
the "metropolis" of the nation; the seat of the kings of Judah; and where the temple was, the priests ministered, and the prophets taught, and the people came up to worship.

Jeremiah 32:32 In-Context

30 For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have done nothing but evil in my sight from their youth; the sons of Israel have done nothing but provoke me to anger by the work of their hands, says the LORD.

31 This city has aroused my anger and wrath, from the day it was built to this day, so that I will remove it from my sight

32 because of all the evil of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah which they did to provoke me to anger--their kings and their princes, their priests and their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

33 They have turned to me their back and not their face; and though I have taught them persistently they have not listened to receive instruction.

34 They set up their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
