Jeremiah - 39:18 Meaning
“For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the LORD.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
39:15-18 Here is a message to assure Ebed-melech of a recompence for his great kindness to Jeremiah. Because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the Lord. God recompenses men's services according to their principles. Those who trust God in the way of duty, as this good man did, will find that their hope shall not fail in times of the greatest danger.
“And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.”
