This is a reason why such orders are given to the army of the Chaldeans to ascend the walls of Jerusalem and destroy them; namely, the perfidy both of the ten tribes, signified by the house of Israel; so Abarbinel; and of the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin, signified by the house of Judah; which was very great, and attended with aggravated circumstances; instances of it follow. The Targum is,<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;they have dealt very falsely with my word:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>saith the Lord<\/strong>; for this was not the charge of the prophet against them, but of the Lord himself. This can only be understood of such of the ten tribes as remained in Judea, for the body of that people had been carried captive mary years ago; whose sins Judah imitated, and, being also the posterity of Israel, may be so called.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: John Gill&#8217;s Exposition of the Entire Bible<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> The verb  &#1489;&#1490;&#1491;,  begad,  means to deceive, to act perfidiously. God then charges the Jews here with perfidy, because they had revolted from him: for he does not only complain that they had in some measure sinned against him, and that he was therefore offended with them, but he charges them with general defection. Hence he says, that both the Israelites and the Jews had become perfidious and apostates. The people, we knew, were now divided into two kingdoms: and though Jeremiah had been given especially as a teacher to the tribe of Judah, it was yet his duty to labor also for the Israelites. The kingdom of Israel was now in some measure fallen, for four tribes had been driven into exile, and the kingdom was dismembered and feeble. He yet wished to do all the good he could to the remnant. Hence he says here, that they were wicked apostates, for they had  acted perfidiously  towards God.  (141) And as this charge was heinous, and might have deeply wounded their minds, he ascribes to God what the Jews would have hardly endured as coming from him; and says, thus  saith Jehovah,  as though he had said, &#8220;There is no reason for you to contend with me, as though I had dealt severely with you: contend with God himself, since he it is who declares that you are all perfidious.&#8221; He afterwards adds &#8212; <\/p>\n<p>  (141) The verb  &#1489;&#1490;&#1491;, when followed by  &#1489; as here, means to deal deceitfully, perfidiously, or treacherously, with one. See <span class='bible'>Exo 21:8<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Jud 9:23<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Lam 1:2<\/span>. It may be rendered here to dissemble, &#8212; <\/p>\n<p> For they dissembling have dissembled with me, The house of Israel and the house of Judah, saith Jehovah. <\/p>\n<p> As the verb is repeated, if we render it &#8220;to act perfidiously,&#8220; instead of repeating the words, to give them their force and meaning, we must say, <\/p>\n<p> For they have dealt most perfidiously with me. <\/p>\n<p> To &#8220;deal unfaithfully,&#8221; as rendered by  Blayney, is too feeble an expression. To &#8220;prevaricate&#8221; is the word used by the  Vulgate,  and the same by the  Septuagint  and the  Targum.  &#8212;  Ed.  <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Calvin&#8217;s Complete Commentary<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> Jer 5:11 For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the LORD.<\/p>\n<p> Ver. 11. <strong> For the house of Israel and the house of Judah.<\/strong> ] Both Aholah and Aholibah are stark naught; I renounce them therefore, and shall take no further charge of them.
