[BACK TO 1:1–3] The background and setting of Jeremiah’s call are stated concisely but comprehensively.

[BACK TO 1:1] The words of. See 36:10 ; see also Ne 1:1 ; Ecc 1:1 ; Am 1:1 ; cf. Dt 1:1 . Jeremiah. For the meaning of his name, see Introduction: Author and Date . Eight other OT men had the same name (see 1Ch 5:24 ; 12:4 , 10 , 13 ; Ne 10:2 ; 12:1 , 12 , 34 ), two of whom were the prophet’s contemporaries ( Jer 35:3 ; 52:1 ). Hilkiah. Means “The L ORD is my portion.” For Hilkiah’s possible relationship to a priestly house dating back to King Solomon, see Introduction: Author and Date . Two other men named Hilkiah (a common OT name) were also Jeremiah’s contemporaries (see 29:3 ; Ezr 7:1 and note). priests. Like Ezekiel ( Eze 1:3 ) and Zechariah (see Introduction to Zechariah: Author and Unity ), Jeremiah was both a prophet and a member of a priestly family. Anathoth. See 11:21–23 ; 32:6–9 . The Hebrew word is the plural form of the name of the Canaanite deity Anat(h), goddess of war. Anathoth had had priestly connections in Israel as early as the times of Joshua ( Jos 21:18 ) and Solomon ( 1Ki 2:26 ), and its pagan origins had presumably been almost forgotten by Jeremiah’s time. Present-day Anata, three miles northeast of Jerusalem, preserves the ancient name and may be the ancient site itself. Benjamin. Anathoth was one of the four Levitical towns in the tribal territory of Benjamin ( Jos 21:17–18 ), and after the exile Benjamites settled there again ( Ne 11:31–32 ).

[BACK TO 1:2] The word of the L ORD came. The most common way of introducing a divine prophecy at the beginning of a prophetic book (see Eze 1:3 ; Jnh 1:1 and note; Hag 1:1 ; Zec 1:1 and note; cf. Hos 1:1 ; Joel 1:1 and note; Mic 1:1 ; Zep 1:1 ). to him. Beginning in v. 4 , Jeremiah speaks in the first person (see, e.g., vv. 11 , 13 ; 2:1 ). thirteenth year. 626 BC (see 25:3 ). Josiah. See 3:6 ; 36:2 . He was the last good and godly king of Judah. Jeremiah sympathized with and supported his attempts at spiritual reformation and renewal (see 22:15b–16 ), which began in earnest in 621 (see 2Ki 22:3–23:25 ; 2Ch 34:8–35:19 ; cf. 2Ch 34:3–7 ).

[BACK TO 1:3] Jehoiakim. His predecessor (Jehoahaz) and successor (Jehoiachin) are not mentioned, since they each reigned only three months. In contrast to his father, Josiah, Jehoiakim was a wicked ruler (see 2Ki 23:36–37 ; 2Ch 36:5 )—as Jeremiah discovered almost immediately (see Introduction: Background ; see also 22:13–15a , 17–19 ; 26:20–23 ). fifth month of the eleventh year. Av (July-August), 586 BC (see 52:12 ). Zedekiah. The last king of Judah (see Introduction: Background ), as wicked in his own way as Jehoiakim (see 52:1–2 ; 2Ch 36:11–14 ; see also Jer 24:8 ; 37:1–2 ). exile. The main captivity of Judah’s people coincided with the destruction of Jerusalem and Solomon’s temple by Nebuchadnezzar in 586 (see 2Ki 25:8–11 ).

[BACK TO 1:4–19] The account of Jeremiah’s call includes two prophetic visions (vv. 10–16 ) and some closing words of exhortation and encouragement (vv. 17–19 ).

[BACK TO 1:4] See note on v. 2 .

[BACK TO 1:5] I formed you. See Isa 49:5 . God’s creative act (see Ge 2:7 ; Ps 119:73 ) is the basis of his sovereign right (see 18:4–6 ; Isa 43:21 ) to call Jeremiah into his service. I knew you. In the sense of making Jeremiah the object of his choice (see NIV text note). The Hebrew verb used here is translated “chosen” in Ge 18:19 ; Am 3:2 . I set you apart. I consecrated you (cf. Jdg 13:5 ; Isa 49:1 ; Ro 1:1 ; Gal 1:15 and note). I appointed you. The Hebrew for this verb is not the same as that in v. 10 , but both refer to the commissioning of the prophet. prophet. Lit. “one who has been called” to be God’s spokesman (see Ex 7:1–2 ; 1Sa 9:9 ; Zec 1:1 and notes). nations. Although Judah’s neighbors are probably the primary focus (see 25:8–38 ; chs. 46–51 ), Judah herself is not excluded.

[BACK TO 1:6] not know how to speak. Like Moses (see Ex 4:10 and note), Jeremiah claimed inability to be a prophet; God nevertheless made him his “spokesman” ( 15:19 ). too young. See 1Ki 3:7 . Jeremiah’s objection is denied immediately by the Lord (v. 7 ).

[BACK TO 1:7] Youth and inexperience do not disqualify when God calls (see 1Ti 4:12 ); he equips and sustains those he commissions.

[BACK TO 1:8] Do not be afraid. See 10:5 ; 30:10 ; 40:9 ; 42:11 ; 46:27–28 ; 51:46 ; see also Isa 35:4 and note; 41:10 , 13–14 ; 43:1 ; Zep 3:11 ; Hag 2:5 . I am with you. See v. 19 ; 15:20 . God’s promise of his continuing presence should calm the fears of the most reluctant of prophets (see Ge 26:3 ; Ex 3:12–15 ; Jos 1:5 and notes). rescue. See v. 19 ; 15:20 ; 39:17 . The Lord does not promise that Jeremiah will not be persecuted or imprisoned but that no serious physical harm will come to him.

[BACK TO 1:9] touched my mouth. Either in prophetic vision (see note on v. 11 ) or figuratively—or both (cf. Isa 6:7 ). I have put my words in your mouth. Continues the figure of speech begun earlier in the verse and provides a classic description of the relationship between the Lord and his prophet (see 5:14 ; Ex 4:15 ; Nu 22:38 ; 23:5 , 12 , 16 ; Dt 18:18 ; Isa 51:16 ; cf. 2Pe 1:21 ).

[BACK TO 1:10] appoint. See note on v. 5 . uproot and tear down … destroy and overthrow … build and … plant. See 12:14–15 , 17 ; 18:7–10 ; 24:6 ; 31:28 ; 42:10 ; 45:4 . The first two pairs of verbs are negative, stressing the fact that Jeremiah is to be primarily a prophet of doom, while the last pair is positive, indicating that he is also to be a prophet of restoration—even if only secondarily. The first verb (“uproot”) is the opposite of the last (“plant”), and fully half of the verbs (“tear down,” “destroy,” “overthrow”) are the opposite of “build.”

[BACK TO 1:11] What do you see … ? Often spoken by the Lord (or his representative) to introduce a prophetic vision (see v. 13 ; Am 7:8 ; 8:2 ; Zec 4:2 ; 5:2 ).

[BACK TO 1:12] watching. See NIV text note. Just as the almond tree (v. 11 ) blooms first in the year (and therefore “wakes up” early—the Hebrew word for “watching” means to be wakeful), so the Lord is ever watchful to make sure his word is fulfilled (see Isa 55:10–11 ).

[BACK TO 1:13] pot. The Hebrew for this word is translated “caldron” in Job 41:31 and stresses its large size (see Eze 24:3–5 ).

[BACK TO 1:14] From the north disaster. See note on Isa 41:25 . will be poured out. The Hebrew for this word has a sound similar to that for “boiling” in v. 13 . land. Judah (see v. 15 ).

[BACK TO 1:15] northern kingdoms. Since Assyria posed only a minimal threat to Judah after the death of Ashurbanipal in 627 BC , reference is most likely to Babylonia and her allies. set up their thrones in … the gates of Jerusalem. For the fulfillment, see 39:3 . Since the gateway of a city was the place where its ruling council sat (see notes on Ge 19:1 ; Ru 4:1 ), the Babylonians replaced Judah’s royal authority with their own (cf. 43:10 ; 49:38 ).

[BACK TO 1:16] my judgments on my people. God, sovereign over his own, judges them for their sins, using the Babylonians as his agents of judgment. burning incense to other gods. A common feature of pagan worship (e.g., 7:9 ; 11:12–13 , 17 ; 18:15 ; 19:13 ; 32:29 ; 44:17 ). what their hands have made. Idols (see 16:19–20 ; 25:6 ; 2Ki 22:17 ; 2Ch 33:22 ; Isa 46:6 ).

[BACK TO 1:17] Get yourself ready! Lit. “Tighten your belt around your waist!” For related expressions, see Ex 12:11 ; 1Ki 18:46 ; 2Ki 4:29 ; 9:1 ; Job 38:3 ; 40:7 .

[BACK TO 1:18] fortified city. A symbol of security and impregnability (see 5:17 ; Pr 18:11 , 19 ). iron pillar. Unique in the OT, the expression signifies dignity and strength. bronze wall. See 15:20 . Jeremiah would be able to withstand the abuse and persecution that his divine commission would evoke, even though his enemies themselves would be “bronze and iron” ( 6:28 ). kings … officials … priests … people. The whole nation would defy the prophet and his God (see, e.g., 2:26 ; 23:8 ; 32:32 ).

[BACK TO 1:19] See note on v. 8 ; see also 15:20 .
