Jeremiah 6:14 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Healed - Rather, “tried to heal.”

Of the daughter - These words are omitted by a majority of manuscripts, but found in most of the versions.

Slightly - literally, “according to,” i. e., as if it were, a “trifle: making nothing” of it. This cry of “peace” was doubtless based upon Josiah’s reforms.

Jeremiah 6:14

14 They have healed also the hurtd of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
