Yeremia 7:14
Konteks7:14 So I will destroy this temple which I have claimed as my own, 1 this temple that you are trusting to protect you. I will destroy this place that I gave to you and your ancestors, 2 just like I destroyed Shiloh. 3
Yeremia 51:52
Konteks51:52 Yes, but the time will certainly come,” 4 says the Lord, 5
“when I will punish her idols.
Throughout her land the mortally wounded will groan.
[7:14] 1 tn Heb “over which my name is called.” For this nuance of this idiom cf. BDB 896 s.v. קָרָא Niph.2.d(4) and see the usage in 2 Sam 12:28.
[7:14] 2 tn Heb “fathers” (also in vv. 22, 25, 26).
[7:14] 3 tn Heb “I will do to this house which I…in which you put…and to this place which…as I did to Shiloh.”
[51:52] 4 tn Heb “that being so, look, days are approaching.” Here לָכֵן (lakhen) introduces the Lord’s response to the people’s lament (v. 51). It has the force of “yes, but” or “that may be true.” See Judg 11:8 and BDB 486-87 s.v. כֵּן 3.d.
