Jeremías 44:23

Listen to Jeremías 44:23
23 Porque ofrecisteis sahumerios, y pecasteis contra el SEÑOR, y no escuchasteis la voz del SEÑOR, ni anduvisteis en su ley, ni en sus derechos, ni en sus testimonios; por tanto, ha venido sobre vosotros este mal, como sucede hoy.

Jeremías 44:23 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 44:23

And because ye have burnt incense
Not to Jehovah, but to the queen of heaven; which they owned they did, and determined they would; asserting it was better with them when they did it than when they omitted it; for which reason the prophet particularly mentions it, and assigns it as the cause of the present ruin and destruction of their land, city, and temple: and because ye have sinned against the Lord;
by worshipping idols; all sin is against the Lord, but especially idolatry: and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord;
by his prophets, who cautioned them against idolatry, reproved them for it, and told them what would be the consequence of it; but this they hearkened not unto, which was an aggravation of their sin: nor walked in his law;
the moral law, according to it; which is a rule of walk and conversation: nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies;
as not in the moral law, so neither in the ceremonial law, and the rites of that; nor in the judicial law, and the testifications of the will of God in either of them: therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day:
that is, the desolation on their land, as in ( Jeremiah 44:23 ) ; (See Gill on Jeremiah 44:23).

Jeremías 44:23 In-Context

21 ¿Por ventura no se ha acordado el SEÑOR, y no ha venido a su memoria el sahumerio que ofrecisteis en las ciudades de Judá, y en las plazas de Jerusalén, vosotros y vuestros padres, vuestros reyes y vuestros príncipes, y el pueblo de la tierra?
22 Y no pudo sufrir más el SEÑOR a causa de la maldad de vuestras obras, a causa de las abominaciones que habíais hecho; por tanto, vuestra tierra fue en asolamiento, y en espanto, y en maldición, hasta no quedar morador, como sucede hoy.
23 Porque ofrecisteis sahumerios, y pecasteis contra el SEÑOR, y no escuchasteis la voz del SEÑOR, ni anduvisteis en su ley, ni en sus derechos, ni en sus testimonios; por tanto, ha venido sobre vosotros este mal, como sucede hoy.
24 Y dijo Jeremías a todo el pueblo, y a todas las mujeres: Oíd palabra del SEÑOR, todos los de Judá que estáis en tierra de Egipto:
25 Así habló el SEÑOR de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, diciendo: Vosotros y vuestras mujeres proferisteis con vuestra boca, y con vuestras manos lo ejecutasteis, diciendo: Cumpliremos efectivamente nuestros votos que hicimos, de ofrecer sahumerios a la reina del cielo y de derramarle libaciones; confirmáis a la verdad vuestros votos, y ponéis vuestros votos por obra.
