God encourages him with his promise of assistance The words of Jeremiah The opening phrase, "The words of Jeremiah," introduces us to the prophet himself, whose name in Hebrew, Yirmeyahu, means "Yahweh will exalt" or "Yahweh throws." This name is significant, as it encapsulates the dual themes of judgment and hope that permeate the book. Jeremiah's words are not merely his own; they are divinely inspired, serving as a conduit for God's messages to His people.

On the name Jeremiah, and on the position occupied by Hilkiah, see Introduction. That were in Anathoth. So Vulgate; Septuagint, however (followed by Payne Smith), makes the relative refer to Jeremiah (ὅς κατῴκει). But in this case would not the phrase have been "Jeremiah the priest," etc. (comp.
