Jeremías 11:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 11:5

That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your
fathers
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: to give them a land flowing with milk and honey:
that is, abounding with plenty of all kind of provisions; see ( Exodus 3:8 ) ( Deuteronomy 6:3 ) ( 8:7-9 ) : as it is this day;
the land of Canaan continued to those times a very fruitful country; it was as it was promised it should be, and which was a clear thing; their eyes saw it, and the day bore witness to it: then answered I, and said;
that is, the Prophet Jeremiah, to whom the above order was given: so be it, O Lord;
or, "Amen, Lord" F6; either agreeing to publish what the Lord commanded him; or as wishing that the land of Canaan might continue the same fruitful land it was, and the people of the Jews in it, they keeping the words of this covenant; or else as assenting that the curse might fall upon the men that did not observe them, alluding to ( Deuteronomy 27:15-26 ) . This is the sense of Abarbinel; Jarchi and Kimchi observe, that the word "Lord" is vocative, and in the language of prayer.

Jeremías 11:5 In-Context

3 Y les dirás tú: Así dijo el SEÑOR Dios de Israel: Maldito el varón que no oyere las palabras de este Pacto,
4 el cual mandé a vuestros padres el día que los saqué de la tierra de Egipto, del horno de hierro, diciéndoles: Oíd mi voz, y cumplid mis palabras, conforme a todo lo que os mando, y me seréis por pueblo, y yo seré a vosotros por Dios;
5 para que confirme el juramento que hice a vuestros padres, que les daría la tierra que corre leche y miel, como este día. Y respondí, y dije: Amén, oh SEÑOR.
6 Y el SEÑOR me dijo: Pregona todas estas palabras en las ciudades de Judá y en las plazas de Jerusalén, diciendo: Oíd las palabras de este Pacto, y ponedlas por obra.
7 Porque con eficacia protesté a vuestros padres el día que los hice subir de la tierra de Egipto hasta el día de hoy, madrugando y protestando, diciendo: Oíd mi voz.
