Jeremiah 19 is the nineteenth chapter of the Book of Jeremiah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains prophecies attributed the prophet Jeremiah, and is one of the Books of the Prophets.

Text

The original text was written in Hebrew language. This chapter is divided into 15 verses.

Textual witnesses

Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Codex Cairensis (895), the Petersburg Codex of the Prophets (916), Aleppo Codex (10th century), Codex Leningradensis (1008).^[1] Some fragments containing parts of this chapter were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, i.e., 4QJer^a (4Q70; 225-175 BCE^[2]^[3]) with the extant verse 1,^[4] and 4QJer^c (4Q72; 1st century BC)^[5] with extant verses 8-9 (similar to Masoretic Text).^[6]^[7]^[8]

There is also a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint, made in the last few centuries BC. Extant ancient manuscripts of the Septuagint version include Codex Vaticanus (B; ${\mathfrak {G}}$ ^B; 4th century), Codex Sinaiticus (S; BHK: ${\mathfrak {G}}$ ^S; 4th century), Codex Alexandrinus (A; ${\mathfrak {G}}$ ^A; 5th century) and Codex Marchalianus (Q; ${\mathfrak {G}}$ ^Q; 6th century).^[9]

Parashot

The parashah sections listed here are based on the Aleppo Codex.^[10] Jeremiah 19 is a part of the Seventh prophecy (Jeremiah 18 -20) in the section of Prophecies of Destruction (Jeremiah 1-25). {P}: open parashah; {S}: closed parashah.

{S} 19:1-5 {P} 19:6-13 {P} 19:14 {S} 19:15 [20:1-3 {S}]

Verse 1

Thus says the Lord: "Go and get a potter’s earthen flask, and take some of the elders of the people and some of the elders of the priests."^[11]

"Take some of the elders of the people and some of the elders of the priests": In the King James Version: take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the priests,^[12] in the Septuagint, "take some of the elders of the people, and [some] of the priests" (Template:Lang-gr).^[13]

Verse 2

And go out to the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the Potsherd Gate; and proclaim there the words that I will tell you,^[14]

"The valley of the Son of Hinnom": from Template:Lang-he, ge ben hinnom^[15] located very near to Jerusalem, of which a certain Hinnom was owner in Joshua’s time (Joshua 15:8; 18:16), later is known as "Ge-hinnom" ("the valley of Hinnom"), that became the Greek word Gehenna, used by Jesus in Matthew 5:22.^[16]

Verse 6

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that this place shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter.^[17]

Using the setting of the valley, Jeremiah prophecies the people's horrible future that make them "resort to cannibalism", as one of the "curses for covenant violation" (Leviticus 26:29; Deuteronomy 28:53).^[18]
