At that time the army of the king of Babylon was holding Jerusalem under siege. Jeremiah was shut up in jail in the royal palace. Zedekiah, king of Judah, had locked him up, complaining, "How dare you preach, saying, ‘ God says, I'm warning you: I will hand this city over to the king of Babylon and he will take it over. Zedekiah king of Judah will be handed over to the Chaldeans right along with the city. He will be handed over to the king of Babylon and forced to face the music. He'll be hauled off to Babylon where he'll stay until I deal with him. God 's Decree. Fight against the Babylonians all you want—it won't get you anywhere.'"

Contextual Overview

1The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.2Now at that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the house of the king of Judah. 3For Zedekiah [the last] king of Judah had locked him up, saying, "Why do you prophesy [disaster] and say, 'Thus says the LORD, "Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it; 4and Zedekiah king of Judah will not escape from the hand of the Chaldeans, but he will surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with him face to face and see him eye to eye; 5and he will lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and he will be there until I visit him [for evaluation and judgment]," says the LORD. "If you fight against the Chaldeans, you will not succeed"'?" 6And Jeremiah [answered King Zedekiah and] said, "The word of the LORD came to me, saying, 7'Behold (listen carefully), Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle is coming to you, saying, "Buy my field that is in Anathoth, for you have the right of redemption to buy it [in accordance with the law]."' 8"Then Hanamel my uncle's son came to me in the court of the guard in accordance with the word of the LORD, and he said to me, 'Please buy my field that is at Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin, for you have the right of inheritance and the redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.' Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD. 9"I bought the field that was at Anathoth from Hanamel my uncle's son, and weighed out the money for him, seventeen shekels of silver. 10"I signed the deed and sealed it, and called in witnesses, and weighed out the money on the scales.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord,.... The word of prophecy, as the Targum, concerning Jeremiah's buying the field of his uncle's son, Jeremiah 32:6; and concerning the delivery of the city of Jerusalem into the hands of the Chaldeans, Jeremiah 32:26; and the return of the captivity, Jeremiah 32:36;

in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which [was] the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar; the same with Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, a year before the taking of the city by him; for that was in the eleventh of Zedekiah, and the nineteenth of Nebuchadnezzar; see

Jeremiah 52:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The siege of Jerusalem began in Zedekiah’s ninth year Jeremiah 39:1, but was temporarily raised upon the approach of an Egyptian army. See Jeremiah 37:0; Jeremiah 38:0.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXXII

Jeremiah, now confined for his faithful admonitions, foretells

the fate of the king and city, 1-5.

According to the direction of God, he buys of his cousin

Hanameel a field in Anathoth; the contract, or deed of sale,

being subscribed, sealed, and witnessed, and delivered to

Baruch, together with a duplicate not sealed, who is commanded

to put them into an earthern vessel that they may remain there

for many days, 6-14.

This transaction of the prophet, which is entered and

subscribed in the public register, God constitutes a sign or

pledge of the Jews' return from the Babylonish captivity, and

of their again possessing houses, fields, and vineyards, in

their own land, and by their own right, according to their

tribes and families, 15.

Jeremiah's prayer, in which he recounts God's marvellous acts

towards the children of Israel, and deeply deplores the

lamentable state of the country, and the numerous provocations

which have led to it, 16-25.

After which God is introduced declaring his purpose of giving

up his people into the hands of their enemies, 26-35;

promising, however, to restore them in due time to their

ancient possessions, and to make with them an everlasting

covenant, 36-44.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXXII

Verse Jeremiah 32:1. The word that came — This prophecy bears its own date: it was delivered in the tenth year of Zedekiah, which answered to the eighteenth of Nebuchadnezzar. It appears from 2 Kings 25:8, that the eleventh year of Zedekiah was the nineteenth of Nebuchadnezzar; and consequently, that the eighteenth of that monarch must have been the tenth of the Jewish king.
