Jer. 35:1 days of Jehoiakim. King 609–598 b.c.

Jer. 35:2 Rechabites. Nomadic tribe that originated with the Kenites (Judg. 4:11; 1 Sam. 15:6; 1 Chron. 2:55) and was associated with Jehu’s coup in 842 b.c. (2 Kings 10:15–17).

Jer. 35:3–4 man of God. Synonym for “prophet” (1 Sam. 9:6; 1 Kings 12:22; 17:24).

Jer. 35:12–14 The Lord points out the stark contrast between the Rechabites, who have kept the command of Jonadab (see vv. 8–11), and his people Israel, who have not listened to him.

Jer. 35:15–16 God sent regular reminders of his covenant with Judah through the prophets (7:23–25; 25:3–4; 32:33), to no avail. The Rechabites needed be told only once to obey their ancestor.

Jer. 35:18–19 The Lord tells the Rechabites that because they have obeyed their own spiritual leader (vv. 8–10) they will stand before the God of Israel. “Stand before” is a synonym for serving God in his presence, often in the temple (see 7:10; 15:19).
