Jeremiah43:1

1 AND it came to pass, that when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking to all the people all the words of the LORD their God , for which the LORD their God had sent him to them even all these words.

The Hebrew word, which we translate words signifieth also things. The Prophet is very exact in letting us know that he had from the Lord what he delivered to them, he therefore twice repeats it, the words of the Lord their God, and for which the Lord had sent him to them, not that the Prophets alwayes limited themselves to those syllabical words they had revealed to them, but to the matter only of the Revelation; which every Minister of the Gospel is still bound to do, delivering to people only what they have received from the Lord, as 1 Cor. 11.23. as to the matter and substance of what they deliver, though they clothe it with words, and phrases of their own.
