Heb. the words of the dearths, or restraints.
Jer. 17:8• 8For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. (Jer. 17:8)
• No foe could harm, no drought afflict, no famine or sickness decimate Israel, so long as they were careful to obey the word of the Lord and walk according to His statutes. On the other hand, all these sore trials should certainly follow in the wake of indifference to God and rebellion against His Word. (“Chapter 7” by H.A. Ironside)
• There was no yearly-overflowing river for Canaan. “It was a land that drank water of the rain of heaven;” a land that the Lord watched over continually. He it was who gave refreshing showers in abundance, or who withheld according to the state of His people. The river of Mizraim might flow on unceasingly, and flood its valley year by year, yet the condition of the Egyptians be as it would, but it was otherwise in the land of Jehovah. And we may learn from this today. Men of the world are often allowed to prosper despite utter ungodliness. Alas, they are lifted up on high to fall more terribly in the end! On the other hand, the children of God are under His special care, and “whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth” (or disciplineth) for their eternal good. (“Chapter 7” by H.A. Ironside)
