Jeremiah 21

Jer 21:5

The very powers exercised on Israel's behalf in days gone by (Deu 4:34; 5:15; 26:8) were now to be turned against them.

Contrast Jeremiah's firmness of conviction, here, with his timidity in Jer 1, and his bitterness of spirit in Jer 20:14.

Jer 21:12

EVERY MORNING: Manna given (Exo 16:21). Fire on the altar (Lev 6:12). Incense offered (Exo 30:7). Praise offered (1Ch 23:30). Service offered (1Ch 9:27). Sacrifice presented (2Ch 2:4; 13:11). God visits (Job 7:18). God is their arm (Isa 33:2). His compassions new (Lam 3:23). The Philistines present themselves (1Sa 17:16). God silences the wicked (Psa 101:8). Judgment (Zep 3:5). Administer justice (here).
