SEV Biblia, Chapter 44:15
ΒΆ Entonces todos los que sabían que sus mujeres habían ofrecido sahumerios a dioses ajenos, y todas las mujeres que estaban presentes, una gran concurrencia, y todo el pueblo que habitaba en tierra de Egipto, en Patros, respondieron a Jeremías, diciendo:
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 44:15
Verse 15. Then all the men-and all the women] We have not seen the women in determined rebellion before. Here they make a common cause with their idolatrous husbands.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The Jews in Egypt persist in idolatry. (Jer. 44:1-14) They refuse to reform. (Jer. 44:15-19) Jeremiah then denounces destruction upon them (Jer. 44:20-30) Jer. 44:1-14 God reminds the Jews of the sins that brought desolation upon Judah. It becomes us to warn men of the danger of sin with all seriousness: Oh, do not do it! If you love God, do not, for it is provoking to him; if you love your own souls, do not, for it is destructive to them. Let conscience do this for us in the hour of temptation. The Jews whom God sent into the land of the Chaldeans, wer there, by the power of God's grace, weaned from idolatry; but those wh went by their own perverse will into the land of the Egyptians, wer there more attached than ever to their idolatries. When we thrus ourselves without cause or call into places of temptation, it is jus with God to leave us to ourselves. If we walk contrary to God, he wil walk contrary to us. The most awful miseries to which men are exposed are occasioned by the neglect of offered salvation.
Jer. 44:15-19 These daring sinners do not attempt excuses, but declar they will do that which is forbidden. Those who disobey God, commonl grow worse and worse, and the heart is more hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. Here is the real language of the rebelliou heart. Even the afflictions which should have parted them from their sins, were taken so as to confirm them in their sins. It is sad when those who should quicken each other to what is good, and so help on another to heaven, harden each other in sin, and so ripen one anothe for hell. To mingle idolatry with Divine worship, and to reject the mediation of Christ, are provoking to God, and ruinous to men. All wh worship images, or honour saints, and angels, and the queen of heaven should recollect what came from the idolatrous practices of the Jews.
Jer. 44:20-30 Whatever evil comes upon us, it is because we have sinne against the Lord; we should therefore stand in awe, and sin not. Sinc they were determined to persist in their idolatry, God would go on to punish them. What little remains of religion were among them, would be lost. The creature-comforts and confidences from which we promis ourselves most, may fail as soon as those from which we promis ourselves least; and all are what God makes them, not what we fanc them to be. Well-grounded hopes of our having a part in the Divin mercy, are always united with repentance and obedience __________________________________________________________________
