Context — The Broken Jar
12This is what I will do to this place and to its residents, declares the LORD. I will make this city like Topheth.
13The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be defiled like that place, Topheth—all the houses on whose rooftops they burned incense to all the host of heaven and poured out drink offerings to other gods.”
14Then Jeremiah returned from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and proclaimed to all the people,
15“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am about to bring on this city and on all the villages around it every disaster I have pronounced against them, because they have stiffened their necks so as not to heed My words.’”Cross References

Jeremiah 19:14 Summary
Jeremiah 19:14 tells us that the prophet Jeremiah returned from Topheth, where he had been sent by the LORD to prophesy, and then stood in the courtyard of the house of the LORD to proclaim God's message to all the people. This shows us the importance of obeying God's commands, even when it's hard, and being willing to share His message with others, just like we see in Romans 10:14-15. Jeremiah's example encourages us to be bold in our faith and to trust in God's sovereignty, as seen in Psalm 138:8. By following Jeremiah's example, we can learn to trust in God's plan and to proclaim His message to those around us.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Topheth and why was Jeremiah sent there to prophesy?
Topheth was a place where the Israelites burned their children as sacrifices to idols, as seen in Jeremiah 19:5, and Jeremiah was sent there by the LORD to proclaim His message of judgment, as stated in Jeremiah 19:14.
Why did Jeremiah go to the courtyard of the house of the LORD after returning from Topheth?
Jeremiah went to the courtyard of the house of the LORD to proclaim the LORD's message to all the people, as he was commanded to do, similar to the prophets in Ezekiel 3:10-11 who were also called to speak God's words to the people.
What can we learn from Jeremiah's obedience to the LORD's commands in this verse?
We can learn the importance of obedience to God's commands, even when it's difficult or unpopular, just like Jeremiah's example in Jeremiah 19:14, and also seen in the lives of other prophets like Isaiah in Isaiah 6:8-9 who also obeyed the LORD's call.
How does this verse relate to the overall message of Jeremiah 19?
This verse is a pivotal moment in Jeremiah 19, as it marks a transition from the prophet's message of judgment at Topheth to his proclamation of the LORD's words in the courtyard of the house of the LORD, emphasizing the LORD's sovereignty and judgment, as seen in Jeremiah 19:15.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can be like Jeremiah, boldly proclaiming God's message to those around me, even if it's uncomfortable?
- How can I apply the lesson of obedience from Jeremiah's example in my own life, and what are some areas where I need to be more obedient to God's commands?
- What are some idols or sinful practices in my life that I need to repent of, just like the Israelites were called to repent of their idolatry in Jeremiah 19:4-5?
- How can I balance the message of judgment and mercy in my own witness, just like Jeremiah proclaimed both judgment and the possibility of repentance in Jeremiah 19:14-15?
Gill's Exposition on Jeremiah 19:14
Then came Jeremiah from Tophet,.... When he had broke his earthen bottle, and delivered his prophecy before the elders of the people and priests: or, "from that Tophet" (t), whither the Lord had sent
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Jeremiah 19:14
Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD's house; and said to all the people, Court of the Lord's house - near Tophet.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 19:14
Jeremiah had now despatched the errand upon which God had sent him to Tophet; coming back by God’ s direction, he stands in the court, which was common to all people, where the most might hear.
Trapp's Commentary on Jeremiah 19:14
Jeremiah 19:14 Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD’ S house; and said to all the people, Ver. 14. And he stood in the court of the Lord’ s house.] A place of greatest concourse of people; and where he might meet with many hearers. Here he spread his net, that he might catch some souls; dilated his discourse at Tophet, whereof we have here but the short notes; minding them of their sin and punishment. And surely this prophet should be so much the more regarded by us, for that he so freely and fully delivered the divine messages, omitting no part thereof, either for fear or favour. Ambrose bade Augustine read the prophet Isaiah diligently, for the confirmation of his faith. We may all very profitably read the prophet Jeremiah, who is full of incitation to repentance and new obedience.
Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 19:14
(14) He stood in the court of the Lord’s house.—The acted sermon had been preached in Tophet, in the valley of Ben-Hinnom, in the presence of a few chosen representatives of priests and people. It is followed by one addressed to the whole assembled congregation, announcing the same doom.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Jeremiah 19:14
Verse 14. Then came Jeremiah from Tophet] He had probably gone to the valley of Hinnom, and there repeated the discourse which he had a little before delivered to the chief priests and elders.
Cambridge Bible on Jeremiah 19:14
14. Jeremiah has now returned from the fulfilment of his commission.
Barnes' Notes on Jeremiah 19:14
Since it was this repetition of the prophecy in the temple which so greatly irritated Pashur, these two verses ought to be joined to the next chapter.
Whedon's Commentary on Jeremiah 19:14
14, 15. These verses belong with the following chapter.
