Jeremiah 26:2 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Thus saith the LORD; Stand in the court of the LORD's house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the LORD's house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word:

Stand in the court of the Lord's house - the largest court from which he could be heard by the whole people.

Come to worship - worship and sacrifice are vain without obedience (1 Samuel 15:21-22).

Speak ... all the words - (Ezekiel 3:10).

Diminish not a word - (Deuteronomy 4:2; Deuteronomy 12:32; Proverbs 30:6; Acts 20:27; 2 Corinthians 2:17; 2 Corinthians 4:2; Revelation 22:19). Not suppressing or softening anything for fear of giving offence, nor setting forth coldly and indirectly what can only by forcible statement do good.
