Jeremiah 27:15 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

They make use of my name, and pretend to say what they say by commission from me, saith the Lord; but there is no such thing, I never gave them authority to speak any such things. And though possibly they do not design your ruin by these practices, for none can be thought to design their own ruin, yet that will be the end of it; for by this means your hearts are hardened against the revelations of my will, by which I shall be provoked to give you up to ruin; nor shall they escape, for they shall be ruined with you.

Jeremiah 27:15

15 For I have not sent them, saith the LORD, yet they prophesy a lied in my name; that I might drive you out, and that ye might perish, ye, and the prophets that prophesy unto you.
