Jeremia 13:5

Listen to Jeremia 13:5
5 Zo ging ik henen, en verstak dien bij den Frath, gelijk als de HEERE mij geboden had.

Jeremia 13:5 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 13:5

So I went and hid it by Euphrates
Or, "in" F15 it; in a hole of the rock, upon the banks of it: as the Lord commanded me:
all this seems to be done not really, but visionally; it can hardly be thought that Jeremy should be sent on two such long journeys, on such an account, which would take up a considerable time to perform it in; but rather that he went and came in like manner as Ezekiel did, in the visions of God, from Chaldea to Jerusalem, and from thence to Chaldea again, ( Ezekiel 8:3 ) ( 11:24 ) , and so Maimonaides F16 was of opinion, as Kimchi on the place observes, that all this was done in a vision of prophecy.

Jeremia 13:5 In-Context

3 Toen geschiedde des HEEREN woord ten tweeden male tot mij, zeggende:
4 Neem den gordel, dien gij gekocht hebt, die aan uw lenden is, en maak u op, en ga henen naar den Frath, en versteek dien aldaar in de klove ener steenrots.
5 Zo ging ik henen, en verstak dien bij den Frath, gelijk als de HEERE mij geboden had.
6 Het geschiedde nu ten einde van vele dagen, dat de HEERE tot mij zeide: Maak u op, ga henen naar den Frath, en neem den gordel van daar, dien Ik u geboden heb aldaar te versteken.
7 Zo ging ik naar den Frath, en groef, en nam den gordel van de plaats, alwaar ik dien verstoken had; en ziet, de gordel was verdorven en deugde nergens toe.
