Footnotes

  1. 23 Heb “Make good your ways and your actions.” For the same expression see 7:3, 5; 18:11.
  2. 24 For the idiom and translation of terms involved here see 18:8 and the translator’s note there. The Lord is being consistent in the application of the principle laid down in Jer 18:7–8 that reformation of character will result in the withdrawal of the punishment of “uprooting, tearing down, destroying.” His prophecies of doom are conditional threats, open to change with change in behavior.
