Rashi's Commentary, c. 1075. chabad.org. |
| From the Geneva Notes.
 | "Because the wicked always
have some excuse to defend their doings he shows that their own lewd
imaginations deceive them and bring them to these hardships: but God
will examine their deeds by the malice of their hearts." |
|
| From
Matthew Henry's
Commentary.
| "Those who make God their
Hope, have enough in him to make up the want of all
creature-comforts. They shall not cease from yielding fruit in
holiness and good works." |
|
| From Wesley's
Notes.
| "There is nothing so false and
deceitful as the heart of man; deceitful in its apprehensions of
things, in the hopes and promises which it nourishes, in the
assurances that it gives us; unsearchable by others, deceitful with
reference to ourselves, and abominably wicked, so that neither can a
man know his own heart, nor can any other know that of his
neighbour's." |

the Human Heart (Jer 7:9). Sermon by John Wesley. |

Jeremiah 17:5-10, Commentary, Background, Insights from Literary Structure,
Theological Message, Ways to Present the Text. Anna Grant-Henderson, Uniting
Church in Australia.
| "The message is very constant in
Jeremiah: if the people repent then God will turn back to them and
continue to care for them. However, we know by later narrative in the Book
of Jeremiah that the people have failed to heed the message of Jeremiah
and the Babylonians descend and take Jerusalem and the people captive." |

Melbourne, Australia.
| "The prophet probes what the psalmist
assumes, speaking about trust, which comes from deep within one and grows
only within a mature and tested relationship. In this case, trust in God." |

on Your Heart?" Expository Essay,
Jeremiah 17:5-10, Dr. William R. Long.
| "The paradox is that the human heart,
made by God and shaped by the divine mercy and law, is now engraved with
tales of wickedness and disobedience. The longing is for the day when the
heart will, too, be redeemed." |

"Epiphany
C6 - Exegetical Notes on Jeremiah 17:5-8," Douglas MacCallum
Lindsay Judisch, Concordia Theological Seminary (LCMS - Indiana).
| "The phrase "like a
shrub" in the translation above renders the noun 'ar'ar
with prepositional prefix. (The prefixed kaph, of course,
indicates likeness of some kind.) The noun, understood in this way,
is a hapax legomenon, although a closely related noun
occurs in Jeremiah 48:6." |

Prof. Eliezer Segal, University of Calgary.
| "I think that this is an area in which
our different traditions can find a common cause. It is a sacred duty of
the religious communities to equip our people to distinguish between the
authentic divine imperative and the many brands of attractively packaged
sound-bytes and buzz words that pass for revelation in our shallow times." |
