Jeremiah 7:16

Therefore pray not for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear you.
All Commentaries on Jeremiah 7:16 Go To Jeremiah 7

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Praise, offered to appease my wrath. (Haydock) This admirably shows the force of the saints' intercession, which God does not reject, but rather encourages by such declarations. Abraham and Moses did not leave off praying for the guilty, (Genesis xviii. 23., and Exodus xxxii. 10.) and the Lord complains that there was none to withhold him, Isaias lxiv. 7., and Ezechiel xxii. 30. (Calmet)
