Jeremiah 17 is the seventeenth chapter of the Book of Jeremiah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains prophecies attributed to the prophet Jeremiah, and is one of the Books of the Prophets. This chapter includes the third of the passages known as the "Confessions of Jeremiah" (Jeremiah 17:14–18). [1]
Jeremiah by Enrico Glicenstein. Jeremiah was known as a prophet from the thirteenth year of Josiah, king of Judah (626 BC), [9] until after the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of Solomon's Temple in 587 BC. [10] This period spanned the reigns of five kings of Judah: Josiah, Jehoahaz, Jehoiakim, Jehoiachin, and Zedekiah. [9]
The introduction of this verse exactly matches that of the other reference to Jeremiah at Matthew 2:17. [1] Like many of the Hebrew Bible quotations in Matthew, the author has liberally reworked these verses from the source material. The verse nowhere exactly matches any Old Testament text, but the closest is Zechariah 11:13. [2]
The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin: [9] This verse is an "editorial introduction" which is reasonably comprehensive as it contains the prophet's "name, family, status and place of origin," and more complete than most books of prophets. [1]
Scholars from Heinrich Ewald onwards [24] have identified several passages in Jeremiah which can be understood as "confessions": they occur in the first section of the book (chapters 1–25) and are generally identified as Jeremiah 11:18–12.6, 15:10–21, 17:14–18, 18:18–23, and 20:7–18.
The verse is setting up a quotation from Jeremiah 31:15 that appears in the next verse. Brown notes that the Old Syriac Sinaiticus states incorrectly that the quotation is from Isaiah . Isaiah is the Old Testament source Matthew most often refers to, but the verse in Matthew 2:18 clearly comes from Jeremiah.
