Read It With

  • Jeremiah 15:10–14

Read Jeremiah 15:11 with 15:10–14. By itself, “The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant” can be detached from the speaker, addressee, date, imperial horizon, poetic movement, or outcome that gives it force. The complete unit establishes: The prophet curses his birth into public conflict, receives an assurance of eventual advocacy, and hears of northern power and lost wealth.

Why It Needs Context

Jeremiah 15:11 performs a local role inside “Jeremiah Laments Being a Man of Strife.” The prophetic or communal lament states or reports “The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant” at Jeremiah 15:11 as a specific part of “Jeremiah Laments Being a Man of Strife.” The selected verse alone does not carry the full claim.
