Jeremiah 29 - Introduction - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Appended to this history of the struggle with the false prophets at home is a letter addressed to the exiles at Babylon Jeremiah 29. There was at Babylon as at Jerusalem the same determination of the Jews never to submit quietly to a foreign rule. This Jeremiah sought to quell. His words found credence, but not without resistance on the part of the false prophets.
