35:1 Verbum quod factum est ad Jeremiam a Domino in diebus Joakim filii Josiae regis Juda, dicens :
* Footnotes
- A.M. 3398, A.C. 606.
*H The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord in the days of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, saying:
Ver. 1. Joakim, when Nabuchodonosor besieged him again in his 7th year. The Rechabites then pitched their tents in Jerusalem. v. 11. C. — Here we behold a figure of religious orders in the Church, as well as in the Nazarites and disciples of the prophets. Num. vi. and 4 K. i. They observed certain rules for acquiring greater perfection, and refrained from many things which were otherwise lawful. Thus various religious orders, both of men and of women, have flourished in the Church, and though they have different names and regulations, yet they are not sects, as heretics would pretend, but all follow the same faith, use the same sacraments, and are a great ornament to the Catholic Church by their profession of the three essential vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, in imitation of the apostles. Mat. xix. 12. — Joakim. This happened before the preceding prophecies. W.
42_1 Ὁ ΛΟΓΟΣ Ὁ ΓΕΝΟΜΕΝΟΣ ΠΡΟΣ ἹΕΡΕΜΙΑΝ παρὰ Κυρίου ἐν ἡμέραις Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα, λέγων,
הַ/דָּבָ֛ר אֲשֶׁר הָיָ֥ה אֶֽל יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ מֵ/אֵ֣ת יְהוָ֑ה בִּ/ימֵ֨י יְהוֹיָקִ֧ים בֶּן יֹאשִׁיָּ֛הוּ מֶ֥לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֖ה לֵ/אמֹֽר
35:2 Vade ad domum Rechabitarum, et loquere eis, et introduces eos in domum Domini, in unam exedram thesaurorum, et dabis eis bibere vinum.
*H Go to the house of the Rechabites: and speak to them, and bring them into the house of the Lord, into one of the chambers of the treasures, and thou shalt give them wine to drink.
Ver. 2. Rechabites. These were of the race of Jethro, father-in-law to Moses. Ch. — All the Heb. and Latin doctors agree that the Rechabites were strangers. v. 7. 19. W. — Treasures of corn, wine, &c. Jeremias, as a priest, had free access.
42_2 Βάδισον εἰς οἶκον Ἀρχαβεὶν, καὶ ἄξεις αὐτοὺς εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου, εἰς μίαν τῶν αὐλῶν, καὶ ποτιεῖς αὐτοὺς οἶνον.
הָלוֹךְ֮ אֶל בֵּ֣ית הָ/רֵכָבִים֒ וְ/דִבַּרְתָּ֣ אוֹתָ֔/ם וַ/הֲבִֽאוֹתָ/ם֙ בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֔ה אֶל אַחַ֖ת הַ/לְּשָׁכ֑וֹת וְ/הִשְׁקִיתָ֥ אוֹתָ֖/ם יָֽיִן
35:3 Et assumpsi Jezoniam filium Jeremiae filii Habsaniae, et fratres ejus, et omnes filios ejus, et universam domum Rechabitarum,
And I took Jezonias the son of Jeremias the son of Habsanias, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites.
42_3 Καὶ ἐξήγαγον τὸν Ἰεχονιαν υἱὸν Ἱερεμὶν υἱοῦ Χαβασὶν, καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν οἰκίαν Ἀρχαβεὶν,

35:4 et introduxi eos in domum Domini, ad gazophylacium filiorum Hanan filii Jegedeliae hominis Dei, quod erat juxta gazophylacium principum, super thesaurum Maasiae filii Sellum, qui erat custos vestibuli :
*H And I brought them into the house of the Lord, to the treasure house of the sons of Hanan, the son of Jegedelias the man of God, which was by the treasure house of the princes, above the treasure of Maasias the son of Sellum, who was keeper of the entry.
Ver. 4. Of God. Prophets are generally thus designated. 4 K. iv. 7. We know nothing more of this holy man. — Princes of the priests; or where princes made their offerings, or assembled to judge. C. xxvi. 10. — Entry. He was not removeable like the other Levites. 1 Par. ix. 19. 34. C.
42_4 καὶ εἰσήγαγον αὐτοὺς εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου εἰς τὸ παστοφόριον υἱῶν Ἰωνὰν, υἱοῦ Ἀνανίου, υἱοῦ Γοδολίου ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ, ὅς ἐστιν ἐγγὺς τοῦ οἴκου τῶν ἀρχόντων τῶν ἐπάνω τοῦ οἴκου Μαασαίου υἱοῦ Σελὼμ, τοῦ φυλάσσοντος τὴν αὐλήν.

35:5 et posui coram filiis domus Rechabitarum scyphos plenos vino, et calices, et dixi ad eos : Bibite vinum.
*H And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups: and I said to them: Drink ye wine.
Ver. 5. Wine. This was not an exhortation, but a trial. H.
42_5 Καὶ ἔδωκα κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτῶν κεράμιον οἴνου, καὶ ποτήρια, καὶ εἶπα, πίετε οἴνον.

4_Kings
10:15
And when he was departed thence, he found Jonadab, the son of Rechab, coming to meet him, and he blessed him. And he said to him: Is thy heart right as my heart is with thy heart? And Jonadab said: It is. If it be, said he, give me thy hand. He gave him his hand. And he lifted him up to him into the chariot,
*H And they answered : We will not drink wine: because Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying: You shall drink no wine, neither you, nor your children, for ever:
Ver. 6. Jonadab. A man much esteemed by Jehu. 4 K. x. 15. W.
42_6 Καὶ εἶπον, οὐ μὴ πίωμεν οἶνον, ὅτι Ἰωναδὰβ υἱὸς Ῥηχὰβ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν ἐνετείλατο ἡμῖν, λέγων, οὐ μὴ πίητε οἶνον ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ υμῶν ἕως αἰῶνος,

35:7 et domum non aedificabitis, et sementem non seretis, et vineas non plantabitis, nec habebitis : sed in tabernaculis habitabitis cunctis diebus vestris, ut vivatis diebus multis super faciem terrae in qua vos peregrinamini.
*H Neither shall ye build houses, nor sow reed, nor plant vineyards, nor have any: but you shall dwell in tents all your days, that you may live many days upon the face of the earth, in which you are strangers.
Ver. 7. Days. The reward of dutiful children. Ex. xx. 12. These are models of those Christians who follow the rule of some virtuous person, in order to be at a greater distance from any transgression of the law, and to observe it with more perfection. C. — "If a father could lay such an injunction on his descendants, and they receive commendation for observing it, why may not the fathers of the Church enjoin things which are not of themselves necessary, but...useful to avoid the occasions of evil, or to advance in virtue?" says Grotius, a Protestant, after S. Jerom, (ad Paulin.) S. Aug. in Ps. lxx. &c. H. Jonadab exhorted, and prescribed this rule, but it was not properly a command, being too arduous. T.
42_7 καὶ οἰκίας οὐ μὴ οἰκοδομήσητε, καὶ σπέρμα οὐ μὴ σπείρητε, καὶ ἀμπελὼν οὐκ ἔσται ὑμῖν, ὅτι ἐν σκηναῖς οἰκήσετε πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὑμῶν, ὅπως ἂν ζήσητε ἡμέρας πολλὰς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἐφʼ ἧς διατρίβετε ὑμεῖς ἐπʼ αὐτῆς.

35:8 Obedivimus ergo voci Jonadab filii Rechab, patris nostri, in omnibus quae praecepit nobis, ita ut non biberemus vinum cunctis diebus nostris, nos, et mulieres nostrae, filii, et filiae nostrae,
Therefore we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all things that he commanded us: so as to drink no wine all our days: neither we, nor our wives, nor our sons, nor our daughters:
42_8 Καὶ ἠκούσαμεν τῆς φωνῆς Ἰωναδὰβ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, πρὸς τὸ μὴ πιεῖν οἶνον πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἡμῶν, ἡμεῖς καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες ἡμῶν, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ἡμῶν, καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες ἡμῶν,

35:9 et non aedificaremus domos ad habitandum : et vineam, et agrum, et sementem non habuimus :
Nor to build houses to dwell in, nor to have vineyard, or field, or seed:
42_9 καὶ πρὸς τὸ μὴ οἰκοδομεῖν οἰκίας τοῦ κατοικεῖν ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἀμπελὼν καὶ ἀγρὸς καὶ σπέρμα οὐκ ἐγένετο ἡμῖν.

35:10 sed habitavimus in tabernaculis, et obedientes fuimus juxta omnia quae praecepit nobis Jonadab pater noster.
But we have dwelt in tents, and have been obedient according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
42_10 Καὶ ᾠκήσαμεν ἐν σκηναῖς, καὶ ἠκούσαμεν, καὶ ἐποιήσαμεν κατὰ πάντα ἃ ἐνετείλατο ἡμῖν Ἰωναδὰβ ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν.
וַ/נֵּ֖שֶׁב בָּֽ/אֳהָלִ֑ים וַ/נִּשְׁמַ֣ע וַ/נַּ֔עַשׂ כְּ/כֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר צִוָּ֖/נוּ יוֹנָדָ֥ב אָבִֽי/נוּ
35:11 Cum autem ascendisset Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis ad terram nostram, diximus : Venite, et ingrediamur Jerusalem a facie exercitus Chaldaeorum, et a facie exercitus Syriae : et mansimus in Jerusalem.
*H But when Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up to our land, we said: Come, let us go into Jerusalem from the face of the army of the Chaldeans, and from the face of the army of Syria: and we have remained in Jerusalem.
Ver. 11. Syria. 4 K. xxiv. 2. The mention of these shews that this was the second siege, when Joakim was slain, and many led into captivity, (C. lii. 28.) with these Rechabites. C. — They lived under tents, but in case of necessity entered the city. v. 10. If they observe works of supererogation, all must surely keep God's law. W.
42_11 Καὶ ἐγενήθη ὅτε ἀνέβη Ναβουχοδονόσορ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ εἴπαμεν εἰσελθεῖν, καὶ εἰσήλθομεν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς δυνάμεως τῶν Χαλδαίων, καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς δυνάμεως τῶν Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ ᾠκοῦμεν ἐκεῖ.

35:12 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Jeremiam, dicens :
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:

וַֽ/יְהִי֙ דְּבַר יְהוָ֔ה אֶֽל יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ לֵ/אמֹֽר
35:13 Haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel : Vade, et dic viris Juda et habitatoribus Jerusalem : Numquid non recipietis disciplinam, ut obediatis verbis meis ? dicit Dominus.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Go, and say to the men of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Will you not receive instruction, to obey my words, saith the Lord?
42_13 οὕτως λέγει Κύριος, πορεύου, καὶ εἰπὸν ἀνθρώπῳ Ἰούδα, καὶ τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, οὐ μὴ λάβητε παιδείαν τοῦ ἀκούειν τοὺς λόγους μου;

35:14 Praevaluerunt sermones Jonadab filii Rechab quos praecepit filiis suis ut non biberent vinum, et non biberunt usque ad diem hanc, quia obedierunt praecepto patris sui : ego autem locutus sum ad vos, de mane consurgens et loquens, et non obedistis mihi.
*H The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, by which he commanded his sons not to drink wine, have prevailed: and they have drunk none to this day, because they have obeyed the commandment of their father: but I have spoken to you, rising early and speaking, and you have not obeyed me.
Ver. 14. Me. What a contrast! H. — This was only a counsel, mine a law! T.
42_14 Ἔστησαν ῥῆμα υἱοὶ Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ῥηχὰβ, ὃ ἐνετείλατο τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸ μὴ πιεῖν οἶνον, καὶ οὐκ ἐπίοσαν· καὶ ἐγὼ ἐλάλησα πρὸς ὑμᾶς ὄρθρου, καὶ οὐκ ἠκούσατε.

35:15 Misique ad vos omnes servos meos prophetas, consurgens diluculo mittensque, et dicens : Convertimini unusquisque a via sua pessima, et bona facite studia vestra : et nolite sequi deos alienos, neque colatis eos, et habitabitis in terra quam dedi vobis et patribus vestris : et non inclinastis aurem vestram, neque audistis me.
And I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early, and sending and saying: Return ye every man from his wicked way, and make your ways good: and follow not strange gods, nor worship them, and you shall dwell in the land, which I gave you and your fathers: and you have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened to me.
42_15 Καὶ ἀπέστειλα πρὸς ὑμᾶς τοὺς παῖδάς μου τοὺς προφήτας, λέγων, ἀποστράφητε ἕκαστος ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ αὐτοῦ τῆς πονηρᾶς, καὶ βελτίω ποιήσατε τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐ πορεύεσθε ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων τοῦ δουλεύειν αὐτοῖς, καὶ οἰκήσετε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἧς ἔδωκα ὑμῖν, καὶ τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν· καὶ οὐκ ἐκλίνατε τὰ ὦτα ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατε.

35:16 Firmaverunt igitur filii Jonadab filii Rechab praeceptum patris sui quod praeceperat eis : populus autem iste non obedivit mihi.
So the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have constantly kept the commandment of their father, which he commanded them: but this people hath not obeyed me.
42_16 Καὶ ἔστησαν υἱοὶ Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ῥηχὰβ τὴν ἐντολὴν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν, ὁ δὲ λαὸς οὗτος οὐκ ἤκουσέ μου.

Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will bring upon Juda, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them, and they have not heard: I have called to them, and they have not answered me.
42_17 Διατοῦτο οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ φέρω ἐπὶ Ἰούδαν καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἱερουσαλὴμ πάντα τὰ κακὰ ἃ ἐλάλησα ἐπʼ αὐτούς.

And Jeremias said to the house of the Rechabites: Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and have kept all his precepts, and have done all that he commanded you:
42_18 Διατοῦτο οὕτως εἶπε Κύριος, ἐπειδὴ ἤκουσαν υἱοὶ Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ῥηχὰβ τὴν ἐντολὴν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν ποιεῖν καθότι ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτῶν,

35:19 propterea haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel : Non deficiet vir de stirpe Jonadab filii Rechab, stans in conspectu meo cunctis diebus.
*H Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: There shall not be wanting a man of the race of Jonadab the son of Rechab, standing before me for ever.
Ver. 19. Before me, in an honourable situation (1 Par. ii. 55.) about the temple. It was not requisite that they should be Levites. C. — For ever. Their reward shall be eternal bliss. H. — This they sought for, as they were strangers of Madian in the country. v. 7. M.
42_19 οὐ μὴ ἐκλείπῃ ἀνὴρ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰωναδὰβ υἱοῦ Ῥηχὰβ παρεστηκὼς κατὰ πρόσωπόν μου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς γῆς.
