Contextual Overview
1This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah: 2"Go to the house of the Rechabites, speak to them, and bring them to one of the chambers of the house of the LORD to offer them a drink of wine." 3So I took Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons-the entire house of the Rechabites- 4and I brought them into the temple of the LORD, to a chamber occupied by the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, a man of God. This room was near the chamber of the officials, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum the doorkeeper. 5Then I set pitchers full of wine and cups before the men of the house of the Rechabites and said to them, "Drink some wine." 6"We do not drink wine," they replied, "for our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab commanded us, 'Neither you nor your descendants are ever to drink wine. 7Nor are you ever to build a house or sow seed or plant a vineyard. Those things are not for you. Instead, you must live in tents all your lives, so that you may live a long time in the land where you sojourn.' 8We have obeyed the voice of our forefather Jonadab son of Rechab in all he commanded us. So we have not drunk wine all our lives-neither we nor our wives nor sons nor daughters. 9Nor have we built houses to live in or had vineyards, fields, or crops. 10But we have lived in tents and have obeyed and done exactly as our forefather Jonadab commanded us.
