The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying, 2Ki 23:35Jer 1:3Jer 25:12Ch 36:5-82Ki 24:1-6Dan 1:1Jer 22:13-19Jer 26:1 “Go to the house of the Rechabites, and speak to them, and bring them into the LORD’s house, into one of the rooms, and give them wine to drink.” 1Ch 2:551Ch 9:261Ki 6:5-61Ch 23:281Ch 9:331Ki 6:102Ch 3:92Ch 31:11
Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, with his brothers, all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites; and I brought them into the LORD’s house, into the room of the sons of Hanan the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was by the room of the princes, which was above the room of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the threshold. Deu 33:12Ch 8:142Ki 12:91Ch 9:18-191Ki 12:222Ki 1:11-132Ki 1:92Ki 25:18 I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups; and I said to them, “Drink wine!” Amo 2:12Ecc 9:72Co 2:9Jer 35:2
But they said, “We will drink no wine; for Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying, ‘You shall drink no wine, neither you nor your children, forever. 1Ch 2:552Ki 10:15Luk 1:15Jdg 13:14Jdg 13:7Lev 10:91Ch 16:191Co 7:26-31 You shall not build a house, sow seed, plant a vineyard, or have any; but all your days you shall dwell in tents, that you may live many days in the land in which you live as nomads.’ Jer 35:10Eph 6:2-3Exo 20:12Gen 25:27Lev 23:42-43Neh 8:14-161Pe 2:11Eph 5:18 We have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he commanded us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daughters; Col 3:20Pro 1:8-9Pro 4:1-2Pro 4:10Pro 6:20Pro 13:1 and not to build houses for ourselves to dwell in. We have no vineyard, field, or seed; 1Ti 6:6Jer 35:7Psa 37:162Ki 5:26Num 16:14 but we have lived in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us. But when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, we said, ‘Come! Let’s go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians; so we will dwell at Jerusalem.’” Jer 8:142Ki 24:1-2Dan 1:1-2Jer 4:5-7Luk 21:20-21Mrk 13:14
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying, “The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, “Will you not receive instruction to listen to my words?” says the LORD. Jer 32:33Jer 5:3Isa 28:9-12Jer 6:8-10Heb 12:25Isa 42:23Jer 9:12Pro 19:20 “The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab that he commanded his sons, not to drink wine, are performed; and to this day they drink none, for they obey their father’s commandment; but I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking, and you have not listened to me. Jer 25:3-4Isa 30:9Isa 50:2Jer 11:7Jer 7:13Jer 7:24-26Pro 1:20-332Ch 36:15-16 I have sent also to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, ‘Every one of you must return now from his evil way, amend your doings, and don’t go after other gods to serve them. Then you will dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers;’ but you have not inclined your ear, nor listened to me. Jer 18:11Ezk 18:30-32Jer 25:5-6Hos 14:1-4Jer 17:20-25Jer 7:3-7Act 26:20Isa 1:16-19 The sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father which he commanded them, but this people has not listened to me.”’ Jer 35:14Mal 1:6Isa 1:3Luk 15:11-13Luk 15:28-30Mat 11:28-30
“Therefore the LORD, the God of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Judah and on all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them, but they have not heard; and I have called to them, but they have not answered.’” Isa 66:4Isa 65:12Jer 7:13Rom 10:21Luk 13:34-35Pro 16:2Isa 50:2Jer 11:8
Jeremiah said to the house of the Rechabites, “The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according to all that he commanded you,’ Deu 5:16Exo 20:12Eph 6:1-3 therefore the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Jonadab the son of Rechab will not lack a man to stand before me forever.’” Jer 15:19Luk 21:36Jer 33:17-18Jud 1:24Psa 5:51Ch 2:55
