Meaning

The confrontation with prophets who claimed to be genuine has always been an issue in Jeremiah’s ministry, because their message was completely opposite to his. For the ordinary people, it was not always obvious whose message was right, since the prophets addressed in this chapter claimed to bring a message in the name of the Lord. In 23:9–40 there is a clear statement that God is on Jeremiah’s side, a theme that will be resumed in later chapters (25:2–3, 13; 27 – 28; 29). He is sent by God to correct the people and address their idolatry and other sinful behaviour. God is ‘with him’, but ‘against’ those who falsely claim to be true prophets.
