Matthew Poole's Concise Commentary

Jeremiah 33:6

The latter part of this verse expoundeth the former, for by health and cure the prophet meaneth peace and truth: we met with the like metaphorical expression Jeremiah 30:17: See Poole on "Jeremiah 30:17". The miserable disturbed state of a nation being compared to wounds and sickness, the restoring of it to a peaceable, prosperous state is fitly called its health and cure. By truth here seems to be meant faithfulness, or stability, not truth of propositions: q.d. I will, after this great wound which I have given this people, bring them again into a quiet and peaceable state, in which they shall abide many days.
