Jeremías 8:2

2 Y los esparcirán al sol, y á la luna, y á todo el ejército del cielo, á quien amaron, y á quienes sirvieron, y en pos de quienes anduvieron, y á quienes preguntaron, y á quienes se encorvaron. No serán recogidos, ni enterrados: serán por muladar sobre la haz de la tierra.

Jeremías 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 ) .

Jeremías 8:2 In-Context

1 EN aquel tiempo, dice Jehová, sacarán los huesos de los reyes de Judá, y los huesos de sus príncipes, y los huesos de los sacerdotes, y los huesos de los profetas, y los huesos de los moradores de Jerusalem, fuera de sus sepulcros;
2 Y los esparcirán al sol, y á la luna, y á todo el ejército del cielo, á quien amaron, y á quienes sirvieron, y en pos de quienes anduvieron, y á quienes preguntaron, y á quienes se encorvaron. No serán recogidos, ni enterrados: serán por muladar sobre la haz de la tierra.
3 Y escogeráse la muerte antes que la vida por todo el resto que quedare de esta mala generación, en todos los lugares á donde los arrojaré yo á los que quedaren, dice Jehová de los ejércitos.
4 Les dirás asimismo: Así ha dicho Jehová: ¿El que cae, no se levanta? ¿el que se desvía, no torna á camino?
5 ¿Por qué es este pueblo de Jerusalem rebelde con rebeldía perpetua? Abrazaron el engaño, no han querido volverse.
