Yes, the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not listened to Me. Context 16‘Indeed, the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have observed the command of their father which he commanded them, but this people has not listened to Me.’”’ 17“Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, ‘Behold, I am bringing on Judah and on all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the disaster that I have pronounced against them; because I spoke to them but they did not listen, and I have called them but they did not answer.’” 18Then Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, “Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, ‘Because you have obeyed the command of Jonadab your father, kept all his commands and done according to all that he commanded you; 19therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, “Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not lack a man to stand before Me always.”’” Links Jeremiah 35:16 NIVJeremiah 35:16 NLT Jeremiah 35:16 ESV Jeremiah 35:16 NASB Jeremiah 35:16 KJV Jeremiah 35:16 Commentaries Bible Hub |
