Jeremiah 33:6 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The latter part of this verse expoundeth the former, for by health and cure the prophet meaneth peace and truth: we met with the like metaphorical expression Jeremiah 30:17: See Poole on "Jeremiah 30:17". The miserable disturbed state of a nation being compared to wounds and sickness, the restoring of it to a peaceable, prosperous state is fitly called its health and cure. By truth here seems to be meant faithfulness, or stability, not truth of propositions: q.d. I will, after this great wound which I have given this people, bring them again into a quiet and peaceable state, in which they shall abide many days.

Jeremiah 33:6

6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.
