Jeremiah 10:1-16

This is most striking sermon, and very highly finished, in which the Prophet, in the Lord's name, asserts his divine nature and sovereignty: and then displays the folly of idols. The words are so plain, that they can need no comment. Isaiah had it in commission, to preach to the same amount: and he hath done it in the most sublime manner. Isaiah 44:9. And let the Reader observe in the close of this paragraph, how sweetly the Lord speaks of the Israel of God: as the Lord's portion and the lot of his inheritance. The Reader will find a parallel passage Deuteronomy 32:8, etc. and again, Deuteronomy 33:26 to the end.
