Context — Judah Rebuked

13“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Go and tell the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem: ‘Will you not accept discipline and obey My words?’ declares the LORD. 14The words of Jonadab son of Rechab have been carried out. He commanded his sons not to drink wine, and they have not drunk it to this very day because they have obeyed the command of their forefather. But I have spoken to you again and again, and you have not obeyed Me!

15Again and again I have sent you all My servants the prophets, proclaiming: ‘Turn now, each of you, from your wicked ways, and correct your actions. Do not go after other gods to serve them. Live in the land that I have given to you and your fathers.’ But you have not inclined your ear or listened to Me.

16Yes, the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not listened to Me. 17Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring to Judah and to all the residents of Jerusalem all the disaster I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them but they have not obeyed, and I have called to them but they have not answered.’”

Jeremiah 35:15 Summary

This verse is about God calling His people to turn away from sin and follow Him. He sent prophets to warn them and guide them, but they refused to listen. God wants us to live in the place He has given us and to follow His commands, just like He promised to the Israelites in the book of Genesis (Genesis 12:7). By listening to God and following His ways, we can avoid the consequences of sin and live a life that is pleasing to Him, as seen in Psalm 119:1-3 and Matthew 22:37-40.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Jeremiah 35:15

God, in this revelation of his mind to the prophet, expoundeth to him why he had set him to bring the Rechabites into the temple, and commanded him to set wine before them, and invite them to drink of it, viz. that by their refusal of doing according to the invitation, in obedience to their father Jonadab, he might convince the Jews of their disobedience to his commands, though God’ s commands were more advantaged than the commands of Jonadab, in that, 1. Jonadab was but an earthly parent, and so had no absolute universal sovereignty over his children; but God was the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel. 2. Jonadab’ s command was not for the performance of a moral duty, but the doing of a thing which they might do, or leave undone; God required of them what was but their moral duty, and for which was the highest reason. 3. Jonadab’ s command had no promise annexed; God’ s precept had a promise annexed, yet they had not yielded him that obedience which the sons of Jonadab had yielded him: he was their Father, but where was his honour?

Trapp's Commentary on Jeremiah 35:15

Jeremiah 35:15 I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending [them], saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.Ver. 15.

And go not after other gods.] For wherein can they bestead you? And ye shall dwell in the land.] This was more thau ever Jonadab could promise, or promising perform, to his nephews. But ye have not inclined your ear.] See Jeremiah 7:24; Jeremiah 7:26; Jeremiah 11:8; Jeremiah 17:23; Jeremiah 34:14.

Ellicott's Commentary on Jeremiah 35:15

(15) Return ye now every man from his evil way.—The words are more than a general summary of the teaching of earlier prophets, and we find in them an almost verbal reproduction of the burden of Jeremiah’s own preaching, in Jeremiah 25:5-6, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, i.e., before the incident here recorded.
