Jeremiah 14

7. causes Jeremiah to pray.
10. The Lord will not be entreated for the people.
13. false prophets are no excuse for them.
17. Jeremiah is moved to complain for them.














(19) Hast thou utterly rejected Judah?--The heart of the patriot overpowers even the conviction of the prophet, and, though bidden not to pray, he bursts forth, in spite of the command, with a prayer of passionate intercession.

Hath thy soul lothed Zion?--The Hebrew implies the act of rejection as well as the feeling which leads to it.

Verse 19. - We looked for peace, etc.; a repetition of Jeremiah 8:15.
