Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on Jer 8:5
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown · 1871
Jer 8:5 · Douay-Rheims
“Why then is this people in Jerusalem turned away with a stubborn revolting? they have laid hold on lying, and have refused to return.”
On this verse:
“slidden . . . backsliding--rather, as the Hebrew is the same as in Jer 8:4, to which this verse refers, "turned away with a perpetual turning away." perpetual--in contrast to the "arise" ("rise again," Jer 8:4). refuse to return--in contrast to, "shall he . . . not return" (Jer 8:4; Jer 5:3).”
