10This is what the LORD says: In this place you say is a wasteland without man or beast, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are deserted—inhabited by neither man nor beast—there will be heard again

11the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those bringing thank offerings into the house of the LORD, saying: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His loving devotion endures forever.’ For I will restore the land from captivity as in former times, says the LORD. 12This is what the LORD of Hosts says: In this desolate place, without man or beast, and in all its cities, there will once more be pastures for shepherds to rest their flocks.

Jeremiah 33:10 Summary

[Jeremiah 33:10 is a promise from God that even in the most desolate and empty places, He can bring life and joy again, just like He promised in Isaiah 51:3 and Ezekiel 36:35. This verse reminds us that God is a God of restoration and renewal, who can take what is broken and make it new again, as seen in 2 Corinthians 5:17. When we feel like our lives or our world are empty and without hope, we can trust in God's promise to restore and revive, and look forward to the day when all things will be made new, as in Revelation 21:5.]

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 33:10

Ye say; those of you who, though you find no great difficulty to believe what I have prophesied concerning the Chaldeans’ taking this city, seeing it upon the matter already taken, yet find a difficulty to believe what I tell you about the people’ s returning, and the rebuilding of it.

Jeremiah 33:10 Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say [shall be] desolate without man and without beast, [even] in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,Ver. 10.

Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 33:10

(10) Again there shall be heard in this place.—The promise of restoration is repeated with a more local distinctness. “This place” is probably, as in Jeremiah 42:18, Jerusalem. The “streets” are, more strictly, the “open places,” the “bazaars,” or even the “outskirts” of the city, which were deserted during the progress of the siege. Now they were waste and silent. The time would come when they would once again re-echo with the sounds of jubilant exultation.

Cambridge Bible on Jeremiah 33:10

10–13. See introd. summary to the section. The genuineness of these vv. may be regarded as questionable; although the fact that the overthrow of Jerusalem is a thing of the past and the land is waste does not prove it to be non-Jeremianic, as the prophet survived the final disaster. The form of the doxology (Jeremiah 33:11), we may note, differs distinctly from that of post-exilic times.
