Jeremiah 31:1

At the same time, saith the LORD, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.

Ver. 1. At the same time,] i.e., In the beginning of Zedekiah's reign, as before, was this word uttered. Or rather, in those latter times forementioned, Jer 30:24 after the return from Babylon, but especially in the days of the Messiah. The modern Jews vainly apply it to the coming of their Messiah, quem tantis etiamnum ululatibus exposcunt, whom they yet expect, but to no purpose.
