SEV Biblia, Chapter 35:19
por tanto, así dijo el SEÑOR de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel: No faltará varón de Jonadab, hijo de Recab, que esté en mi presencia todos los días.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 35:19
Verse 19. Thus saith the Lord-Jonadabshall not want a man to stand before me for ever.] His name shall ever be honourable, and his posterity shall enjoy my continual protection, and there shall never be found a time in which men of his spirit shall be wanting as patterns of genuine simplicity, filial obedience, purity of manners, and deadness to the world. True Christians may be considered as the genuine successors of these ancient Rechabites; and some suppose that the Essenes, in our Lord's time, were literally their descendants and that these were they who followed our Lord particularly, and became the first converts to the Gospel. If so, the prophecy is literally fulfilled: they shall never want a man to stand before God, to proclaim his salvation, and minister to the edification and salvation of others, as long as the earth shall endure.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The obedience of the Rechabites. (Jer. 35:1-11) The Jews' disobedienc to the Lord. (Jer. 35:12-19)
Jer. 35:1-11 Jonadab was famous for wisdom and piety. He lived nearl 300 years before, II Kin. 10:15. Jonadab charged his posterity not to drink wine. He also appointed them to dwell in tents, or movabl dwelling: this would teach them not to think of settling any where in this world. To keep low, would be the way to continue long in the lan where they were strangers. Humility and contentment are always the bes policy, and men's surest protection. Also, that they might not run int unlawful pleasures, they were to deny themselves even lawful delights The consideration that we are strangers and pilgrims should oblige u to abstain from all fleshly lusts. Let them have little to lose, an then losing times would be the less dreadful: let them sit loose to what they had, and then they might with less pain be stript of it Those are in the best frame to meet sufferings who live a life of self-denial, and who despise the vanities of the world. Jonadab' posterity observed these rules strictly, only using proper means for their safety in a time of general suffering.
Jer. 35:12-19 The trial of the Rechabites' constancy was for a sign; is made the disobedience of the Jews to God the more marked. The Rechabites were obedient to one who was but a man like themselves, an Jonadab never did for his seed what God has done for his people. Merc is promised to the Rechabites. We are not told respecting the performance of this promise; but doubtless it was performed, an travellers say the Rechabites may be found a separate people to thi day. Let us follow the counsels of our pious forefathers, and we shal find good in so doing __________________________________________________________________
