Chapter 30
END TIMES
|
Jeremiah 30:1-2 |
|
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
|
Jeremiah instructed to write his book.
|
For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
|
Total Restoration of the Jews. Both Israel and Judah from ALL over the earth to THEIR OWN LAND.
See the information on the Restoration of the Jews in the study on the Millennium.
TRIBULATION PERIOD
|
Jeremiah 30:4-7 |
|
And these are the words that the LORD spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah. For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
|
“…time of Jacob’s trouble…” A reference to the last three and a half years of the seven-year tribulation. The Anti-christ will come into Jerusalem and set himself up in the Temple to be worshipped as God. See the End Times study on the Tribulation Period.
SECOND COMING and MILLENNIUM
|
Jeremiah 30:8-9 |
|
For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:
But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
|
“…in that day…” The day of the Lord’s Return. See the End Times study on the Second Coming.
“…his yoke from off thy neck…” The Anti-christ yoke on Israel will be destroyed and he will come to an end.
They will serve God and David the King. This will happen during the Millenium. David WILL rule over the nation of Israel again.
See the information on the Millennial Government in the study on the Millennium.
|
Jeremiah 30:10-17 |
|
Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make him afraid.
For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished. For thus saith the LORD, Thy bruise is incurable, and thy wound is grievous. There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines.
All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine iniquity; because thy sins were increased. Why criest thou for thine affliction? thy sorrow is incurable for the multitude of thine iniquity: because thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee.
Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that spoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey. For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
|
“…shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make him afraid…” When has this ever been true for the Jews? Yet more evidence that this is speaking of their final restoration in the End Times. For more verses on the Jews being restored, see the study on the Millennium.
JERUSALEM DESTROYED AND REBUILT
|
Jeremiah 30:18 |
|
Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.
|
Continuation of verse 8-9 above.
“…bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents…” the city of Jerusalem will be under captivity again in the future. This we know happens with the Anti-christ in the End Times. Jerusalem WILL get destroyed BUT rebuilt on the same spot!
|
Jeremiah 30:19-22 |
|
And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.
Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the LORD.
And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

CLEANSING THE EARTH AT HIS RETURN
|
Jeremiah 30:23-24 |
|
Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have done it, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.
|
The Lord in His fury is a WHIRLWIND! See the study on Cleansing the Earth.
