Jeremiah 15 Scofield
Read Jeremiah 15 · Matthew Henry on Jeremiah 15
15:11 The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
“the Lord said”
The Remnant, of whom Jeremiah was the representative, are carefully distinguished from the unbelieving mass of the people. The coming captivity, which they must share, for they too have sinned Jer 15:13 though Jehovah's judgment upon the nation, will be but a purifying chastisement to them, and they receive a special promise Jer 15:11. Verses Jer 15:15–18 give the answer of the Remnant to verses Jer 15:11–14. Two things characterize the believing Remnant always-loyal to the word of God, and separation from those who mock at that word Jer 15:16; Jer 15:17 Cf. Rev 3:8–10.
15:21 And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.
