Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 30:2

2 Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book .

It is incertain whether this was a command from God to Ieremiah, to record all the Revelation which God had made to him, or only the Revelation contained in this, and the following Chapter, which consist chie[illegible: 1 letter]ly of promises of the peoples restauration, and so God might command them to be written, that they might not be forgotten, but be at hand for the people to read during their captivity, to keep up their faith and hope in God. A Book in the Hebr. Dialect signifieth any parchment or rowl; God would have them recorded to testifie his Truth, and the truth of the Prophet when they should see the things accomplished.
