Jeremiah23:22
22. stood in ... counsel--(Jr 23:18).
they should have turned them from their evil way--They would have given such counsels to the people as would have turned them from their sins (Jr 25:5; Is 55:11), and so would have averted punishment. Their not teaching the law in which God's counsel is set forth proves they are not His prophets, though they boast of being so (Mt 7:15-20).
