In chapter 16 Jehovah
teaches Jeremiah to avoid all family relationships with
this people, and to cease from all testimonies of
interest in what was going on among them. For He Himself
had entirely broken off with them, and would cause all
His testimonies to cease among them, and would drive them
out of the land. But, after all, through the greatness of
the evil which He would bring upon them, He would cause
their deliverance out of Egypt to be forgotten in their
yet greater deliverance from this evil. For at length God
will pardon and comfort His people But before this He
will recompense their iniquity. Afterwards the Gentiles
themselves shall come and acknowledge the true God, the
God of Israel.
