Jeremiah 31:38 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the city shall be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananeel unto the gate of the corner.

Ver. 38. Behold the days come, saith the Lord, &c] The word come is not in the text; it is read, but not written. The vowel points are in the text, but not the letters; which those, who are against the antiquity of the points, would do well to consider; since the Jews never suffered any additions to the Bible. Hebrew Text Note

That the city shall be built to the Lord.] Jerusalem shall be re-edified, the Church eternally re-established by Christ.

From the tower of Hananeel.] Nehemiah 3:1; Neh 12:39 Zechariah 14:10 .

Unto the gate of the corner.] 2Ki 14:13 Zechariah 14:10 .
