Jeremiah 32:1 meaning and explanation
This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
Jeremiah 32:1, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Jeremiah 32 opens by dating the word he received to the tenth year of Zedekiah, king of Judah, which the text also identifies as the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. The double date is deliberate: it ties Judah's last king to the empire besieging Jerusalem, so readers know the prophecy comes during the final siege, around 588 to 587 BC.
