Into which three parts the land of Judea was divided; [See comments on Jer 32:44]<\/span>;<\/p>\n and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah<\/strong>; in the cities of the two tribes, of which Jerusalem was the metropolis; and which returned from the captivity, and settled here, and were in being when the Messiah came, here prophesied of, the great Shepherd of the sheep:<\/p>\n shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth [them], saith the Lord<\/strong>; alluding to the custom of shepherds telling their flocks, when they led them out of the fold in the morning, and when they put them in at evening s; or to the tithing of them,<\/p>\n Le 27:32<\/span>; this is not to be understood literally, but mystically. So Jarchi, Kimchi, and Abarbinel interpret it of the Israelites going in and out under the hands of their king, that goes at the head of them; and the Targum, of the King Messiah, and who is no doubt meant. The elect of God, who are intended by the “flocks”, were in eternal election considered as sheep, and by that act of grace were distinguished from others; and so when an exact account was taken of them, their names were written in heaven, and in the Lamb’s book of life; and had this seal and mark put upon them, “the Lord knows them that are his”, 2Ti 2:19<\/span>; also in the gift of them to Christ; in the covenant of grace, when they were brought into the bond of that covenant, they were likewise considered as sheep, distinct from others; and were told into the hands of Christ, where they are kept, and who has a most perfect knowledge of them; and in the effectual calling they will again pass under his hands; they are then as sheep that had gone astray, returned to the Shepherd and Bishop of their souls; and when they are separated from others, and special knowledge is taken of them, and Christ’s mark, the sanctification of the Spirit, is put upon them; and at the last day, when Christ shall deliver them up to the Father, he will say, lo, I and the children, or sheep, whom thou hast given me; and they will all be numbered, and not one will be wanting.<\/p>\n s “Bisque die numerant, alter pecus, alter et haedos”. Virgil.<\/p>\n And in the next verse Jeremiah confirms the same thing, where he mentions, as before, the cities of the mountains, and the cities of the plains, and then the cities of the south, and adds also the land of Benjamin, which was a different part of the country, and he mentions generally the circuits of Jerusalem and the cities of Judah What then? The flocks, he says, shall pass under the hands of a numberer Here, again, is set forth a greater security, because shepherds would not, as it were, by stealth lead forth their sheep, and afterwards gather them in a hurry, as it is usually done, when there is any fear of danger. The sheep, he says, shall pass under the hands of a numberer This could not be the case but in time of perfect peace and quietness; for where there is fear, the shepherds can hardly dare send forth their flocks, and then they dare not number them, but shut them in; and they are also often compelled to drive their flocks into forests and desert places, in order to conceal them. When, therefore, Jeremiah mentions the numbering of them, he intimates that the whole country would be in a state of peace, as in other words, and without a figure, he presently will tell us. But the Prophet in this way exalted the benefits of God, and at the same time strengthened the minds of the weak, for as it has been said, this favor could have hardly been tasted by the Jews while in a state so despairing. The Prophet then made use of a homely and ordinary style when he spoke of flocks and herds. It now follows — <\/p>\n 13<\/strong>. <\/strong> Under the hands of him that telleth them <\/strong> That is, who counts the sheep as they are put out to pasture, and again as they are brought back to the fold.<\/p>\n Jer 33:13<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>Shall the flocks pass again, <\/em><\/strong>&c.<\/strong> See Lev 27:32<\/span>. Virgil alludes to the same custom when he says, Bis die numerant ambo pecus: <\/em>“Twice each day they count my goats and sheep.” Eclogue 3: The Chaldee explains the phrase of the Messiah: “My people shall be instructed and formed under the hand of the Messiah.” See Calmet. <\/p>\n Jer 33:13 In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth [them], saith the LORD.<\/p>\n Ver. 13. Shall the flocks pass again under the hand of him that telleth them.<\/strong> ] As shepherds used oft to tell their sheep. Christ the great Shepherd and Bishop of souls knoweth all his sheep, and calleth them by name; he hath them ever in numerato,<\/em> for he numbereth the stars also. See Joh 10:3<\/span> ; Joh 10:11-12<\/span> .<\/p>\n mountains = hill country. <\/p>\n shall: Lev 27:32, Luk 15:4, Joh 10:3, Joh 10:4 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Isa 51:3 – all Jer 13:19 – cities Jer 17:26 – from the cities Jer 32:15 – Houses Lam 5:21 – renew Eze 20:37 – pass Eze 34:14 – there shall Eze 38:12 – the desolate Oba 1:20 – General Zec 1:17 – My cities Zec 7:7 – the south<\/p>\n Jer 33:13.
